tomdelonge Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 I've got my files on a server, however, I don't want people to be able to type in "mydomain.com/include/" and see all the files. In fact, I'd prefer to redirect them to the homepage or something. I know I could just put an index.php file in each directory, but I would rather not do that. Is there any other solutions? Maybe like a 404 error, file not found, and provide a link to the homepage. Any ideas? Thanks.

.josh Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 You could chmod them all to only allow server to access them, or store the directory below public_html Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/133437-directories/#findComment-694029 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomdelonge Posted November 20, 2008 Author Share Posted November 20, 2008 alright, i don't understand a lot about servers. do you mean just move the "include" directory to outside of the "public_html" directory? And will that still allow files in the public_html to include the files in the include directory (obviously after i change the file directories in each file).

.josh Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Yes, move it outside the public_html directory. Yes, that will still allow files in the public_html to include them.
