      Hi All,
      I have created a login page with different pictures, CSS, js and I want to create a folder where i can upload all those files.
      The only option I see in CP -> File Manager, is "add file".
      Any other way I can use to achieve this please ?
      Best Regards
      Neo

        If you have a windows client, you can install a program called "winscp".

          I have already WinSCP and SSH activated.
          On which folder I should then load the captiveportal.html and create the additional folder ? I can't find this information anywhere.

            I haven't used captive portal and can't answer that question. From reading your initial question, I thought your issue was in the uploading process.

            I'm sure someone will reply.

            Try to Google this question instead of using the pfSense forum search.

                If you do this your files might not survive an upgrade or reboot and will not be included in xml backups, etc.

                If I were to need more capability than the file upload provides, I would probably put up another web server and whitelist it in the captive portal.

                  Thanks for the info.
                  I just uploaded all the files through the CP Web Interface to have them "permanent" in Pfsense.
                  As Workaround, it could work for now.
