For me, having a file manager feature would be a huge plus… I should be able to rename a file, move its location, or add a folder in the Project pane and PG update the path structure throughout the site. The evil DW has always done this - currently doing this through another app - like Atom, to me is a clunky workaround ---

Agree. Coming to Pinegrow from Dreamweaver, a file manager is something I miss. And to have it be all automatic-update-like would be a wonderful thing. (Though I have no clue how much dev-work this would require.) Also… Thankyou [SteveH](https://forum.pinegrow.com/u/SteveH), for your final comment: I had not previously realized that Atom has this capability. I shall look into it. ---

Using Atom (or VS) is basically doing a project wide Find and Replace, not an automatic function as in DW - but it does the job. Here is a good post that may be of some help: > ---

How are you guys as SCSS? I need help with something. > [@Help with automatic css Integration of stylesheet](https://forum.pinegrow.com/t/help-with-automatic-css-integration-of-stylesheet/6908): > > I’m relatively new to Pinegrow, but I have managed to get Pinegrow working using the bootstrap framework by using the tutorials. Would anyone be able to help me add the SCSS files from automatic CSS to Pinegrow? The main issue, I think, is not knowing which files I need as they originated from a WP plugin. The official release from the owners of ACSS could be a while yet. If people like myself can manually integrate ACSS into Pinegrow, it’ll be a good selling point. Not to mention speed up my… ---

I’m not that advanced - but this may be a way to start… ![Pinegrow-add-sass-to-bootstrap](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/pinegrow/original/2X/6/6e0209eb5cefa67a07e92d0a5fcaeea2acb33291.jpeg) This should open a dialog that lets PG import your files and work with them (I think) more here: > **[Customizing Bootstrap 5 themes | Pinegrow Web Editor](https://pinegrow.com/docs/bootstrap-visual-editor/customizing-bootstrap-5-themes/)** > > This tutorial will demonstrate how to use SASS variables to customize a Bootstrap 5 theme in Pinegrow. hope this points you in the right direction ---

Regarding the integration of an advanced file manager (I specify “advanced” because there is already a simplified file manager in Pinegrow \> the Project tab), insofar as Pinegrow projects are simple folders containing themselves folders and standard files stored on the hard disk of the computer running Pinegrow, to simplify and optimize the process, we considered that nothing could match the advanced features of the file managers available from the host operating systems (Finder, Explorer etc…). ![SCR-20220908-dvu](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/pinegrow/original/2X/6/6d926b713861a41b0a17e1e6b2c895d9f7d61178.png) ![SCR-20220908-dw8](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/pinegrow/original/2X/a/a75e125695f547f7140e2e4c31474aa830900dfe.png) ---

Coolio - many thanks for looking. I’m afraid that I’m not using Bootstrap but would like the same up the same or similar though. 😍 ---

Maybe i mis-communicated my feature wish. No need to reinvent the Finder, but if I move or rename a file _within PGs Project pane_, then that change would be updated throughout the project. Also, thanks for the reminder to keep the threads on track. Apologies ---

We do have Fix links… command (right click on the HTML file in Project panel) that helps with restoring broken links. It is not perfect, but it can help in such situations.
