Linking from FTP

  • Hello!

    I am trying to add some links to one of my pages to a folder I have made in the FTP. But I am not sure how to construct the link because I am not sure where WP is pulling the information. Currently I have it under my public_html and then the Home folder. I tried it just under the public_html and it wouldnt catch it. I am having more success with it being under the Home folder but its still not loading the content.

    Any suggestions?

  • URLs should be relative to the public_html directory. So if you have a file at public_html/folder/file.jpg, then the URL would be https://mywebsite.com/folder/file.jpg

    I tried that and it worked, thank you, but the file isnt on the WordPress site. Its solely on the FTP. The type of file I am trying to use, php, will not let me upload through the WordPress. So again Im just trying to link it from the FTP. If that makes any sense.

    Doesn’t matter what the filetype is, if it’s in public_html that’s what the link to it would look like.
