PHP website folder structure/template

The PHP website folder template that rileydeman uses in his web projects!

Using this folder template

Using of this folder structure/template is completely free of charge. You are allowed to fork and/or use this repository/template and edit all the files in this template

Important

• The homepage is not in the index.php, the index.php file gets automaticly the public/home.php file.
• The public folder is for everything that the user sees, like all the pages, images etc.
• The app folder is for everything that is back-end, and what the user doesn't see, like adding items to a cart, etc.
• Be sure that the folder where the index.php is located, is the root from your xampp, wampp, lampp or mampp software for your localhost during development.
• The public/home.php file has the template for a web page, including the header and footer include
• The header and footer are in the public/core folder
• The 404 page will automaticly shown at not valid urls on your localhost or website, editing the 404 page is possible in the public/core/errors/404.php file
• The admin folder is for the CMS (Content Management System)
• The CND folder is for the images, CND = Content Delivery Network (folder template and placeholder images coming soon)

.htacess

Mostly the .htacces file can't get the good file, in that case go to the .htaccess file and add the following code to the file: RewriteRule ^requestName public/requestName.php

Changing document root in xampp

1. Go to the folder where the index.php is located
2. Copy the path to that file
3. Open xampp
4. Click on "config" form the apache
5. Click on the top link named "Apache (httpd.conf)"
6. Scoll down until you see something like this
   • DocumentRoot "C:\xampp\htdocs"
   • <Directory "C:\xampp\htdocs">
7. Paste the copied path to both, DocumentRoot and Directory, between the ""
8. Save the file and start or restart apache
