Subfolders
Putting your cart in a subfolder
The most common way of installing your cart is to make it your main website, so the cart files would reside directly under the public_html
folder.
However, it is possible to deploy your cart in a subfolder below public_html
. Examples of when this would make sense is if you already have a website (such as a blog or a regular website) at the top level, or you want to allow for this option in the future.
See deployment model 3 and deployment model 4 for examples of subfolder deployments.
