== From a file to a public page ==
{| class="wikitable"
!Step
!What it means
|-
|01 · Your computer
|Prepare index.html and a backup copy.
|-
|02 · public_html
|Upload using File Manager or SFTP.
|-
|03 · Personal HTTPS URL
|Open the website address from your dashboard.
|}

== What becomes public ==
'''Before you continue:''' Files in public_html are website content. Never place passwords, private keys, application configs, database dumps or backup archives there. Hosting must fit your approved use and plan.

== Publish a first page ==

# '''Select the website location.''' Open File Manager for the correct shell. Set File location to Website · public_html. The Eggdrop location is for bot files, not public web content.
# '''Upload index.html.''' Use Upload file for a file from your computer. For folders or larger transfers, use SFTP. Copy your existing site before overwriting files.
# '''Visit the right URL.''' Open the personal HTTPS website link in your dashboard. Do not add an SSH or ZNC port. The hostname alone is not a substitute for the exact dashboard link.
# '''Edit and check.''' Use the file editor for a text change and Save file. Reload the website and check that links, images and filenames match, including letter case.

== A minimal page to try ==
Save this as index.html on your computer. Replace the sample heading before uploading:<pre>
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width,initial-scale=1">
<title>My shell website</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello from my DWShells website</h1>
<p>This is my personal page.</p>
</body>
</html>
</pre>

== Files and scripts ==
New folder creates a directory in the current location. Upload file transfers one file. The editor saves text files; it does not build a framework or enable unsupported runtimes. Static HTML is a good first check. PHP or other dynamic hosting depends on your effective permissions. Deletion is permanent in the file manager; keep your own copies.

== Troubleshooting ==
{| class="wikitable"
!What you see
!What to do
|-
|Old page still appears
|Check you edited the selected shell’s public_html, saved the file and refreshed the browser.
|-
|An image is missing
|Match the filename and relative path exactly; Linux paths are case-sensitive.
|-
|Upload is too large or a folder will not upload
|Use SFTP and check the disk allocation.
|-
|Page is unavailable
|Check shell status and the exact HTTPS link, then report the URL and error to staff.
|}

== Example directory layout ==
{| class="wikitable"
!Location
!Purpose
|-
|<code>public_html/index.html</code>
|Your entry page
|-
|<code>public_html/style.css</code>
|Public stylesheet
|-
|<code>public_html/images/logo.png</code>
|Public image referenced by your HTML
|-
|Outside <code>public_html</code>
|Private account files; keep credentials and backups out of the website
|}
Use relative links such as <code>images/logo.png</code> when the page is in <code>public_html</code>. A file named <code>Logo.png</code> is different from <code>logo.png</code>.

== Safe updates ==
Download a copy of the existing page, upload your replacement, then test the live HTTPS link. Do not use world-writable permissions or publish configuration secrets to fix a hosting error. Ask staff about unsupported runtimes and commercial hosting before deploying them.

== Rules and support ==
This guide describes how to use the service; it does not replace [[DWShells:Signup and Rules|Signup and Rules]]. Join '''#DWShells''' on <code>irc.darkworld.chat</code> using TLS port '''6697''' for help. Use [https://panel.shells.darkworld.network/customer/ the customer portal] for your actual status and connection details. Never share credentials or recovery links.
