How to change my document root to a folder using .htaccess

How can I serve files from a sub-directory at my main domain?

On your Ecenica web hosting your web files are served from your public_html directory. This is the default web root or document root for your account.

If you would like to host your website files in a sub-directory and do not want to see the directory in the URL you can use the code below:

  1. Edit your .htaccess in your public_html folder.
  2. Enter the following code at the top of your .htaccess file, replacing example.com and directory with your details.
    RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.example.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !directory/
RewriteRule (.*) /directory/$1 [L]
  3. Save

When you visit your domain your website files will be served from your sub-directory.
