How to check new uploaded files to my websites recently?

David Beroff · Nov 8, 2019

I have 10 websites and having some freelancers working on it, recently I see my server increase disk space quickly, I doubt someone uploaded more files to one of my websites but I don't know how to check. Does any one help me to find out which files are uploaded recently?

One example is command --find-- something like:

Bash:

find -type f -mtime 30 # last 30 days

. You can use --ls--command...many ways to do it.

You can use:

Bash:

find /where/are/yourfiles/ -type f -name '*.png' -mtime +30

This will show all your png files from /where/are/yourfiles/ older than 30 days.

Using the ls command, you can only list today’s files in your home folder as follows, where:

-a – list all files including hidden files
-l – enables long listing format
--time-style=FORMAT – shows time in the specified FORMAT
+%D – show/use date in %m/%d/%y format

Bash:

# ls  -al --time-style=+%D | grep 'date +%D'

The OP said "Does any one help me to find out which files are uploaded recently "he wasn't precised what he wanted.

You can do it but in another type, of course the most used / precised is -find-, but if you want to display let's say the last 25 files uploaded you can do something like:

Bash:

ls -halt | head -n 25

You mentioned in the other thread that you are using cPanel/WHM.

The easiest way to check this without needing to resort to entering commands into SSH is just to check the individual cPanel accounts and see which account uses the most space.
