terminal colors

hi!
Is there any way to apply colors in terminal in order files/folders to differ when i connect to a server ? As you know files/folders are the same color so it would be easer for me to recognize folders or files at a glance. I have made this change
export CLICOLOR=1
export LSCOLORS=ExFxCxDxBxegedabagacad
export PS1="\[\033[1;32m\][\$(date +%H:%M)][\hu: \W$ \[\033[0m\] "
but it doesn't work with ssd connection through terminal.
thanks!!

this is because you're using a different terminal emulation on your remote host. To check this, launch Terminal echo $TERM (it's likely xterm-color), then connect to the remote host and do the same. You'd have to set your terminal type (to one that supports colors) and your colors on that host as well.

i did that you told me and it works only for the bash prompt. i looked "man ls" and when i wrote "ls --colors" and finally it shown files/folder with different colors. But when i open a folder and after that go back the problem still exist.
do you know how this choice can be permanently ?

On your remote host - put into your ~/.bashrc
alias ls='ls --colors'

what does it say if you

echo $SHELL

interested to know what shell you're working with.. as it'll help with how to make your change persist through logins
