Pterodactyl File Manager increase 250 file limit

Pterodactyl is an open-source game control panel. When you view game server files, the file manager only lists 250 files per directory.

This is done to improve page loading performance, but if you have many files, you may want to disable the 250 file limit. To do this, edit file

cd /var/www/pterodactyl
vi resources/scripts/components/server/files/FileManagerContainer.tsx

Find

<div>{files.length &gt; 250 &amp;&amp; (
<div>
<p>This directory is too large to display in the browser, limiting the output to the first 250 files.</p>
</div>
)} {sortFiles(files.slice(0, 250)).map((file) =&gt; ( ))}</div>

Replace with

<div>{sortFiles(files).map((file) =&gt; ( ))}</div>

Another way is just to change the number 250 to a higher number.

Now rebuild the files

yarn build:production

Create Laravel template cache

php artisan view:clear

Change permissions for files. This command depends on the web server and OS you use. On RHEL-based OS with Nginx web server, I used

chown -R nginx:nginx /var/www/pterodactyl/
