    Folder became invisible...

    First of all, a hello to all members.

    I am working on a website and useing FTP for the update of that same one. Today i made folder ending with a point at end. For example "hello." . By mistake i set on the site root folder a point at begin, not at end as i wanted. Lets say ".cool" and the folder became invisible. So i have no access on that anymore. Only by calling it from the browser, but inside ftp its invisible to my eyes.

    How can i make it again visible? Thanks

    Hello,

    In your FTP client's settings, depending on what you're using, you should see a setting somewhere that enables the display of dotfiles. Alternatively, opening the cPanel file manager should give you a popup with a few options, one of these should say something like "Show hidden files" - You want to enable this.
