Customizing Paths /public help

Keegan

Just finishing up this document for my instance

https://docs.flarum.org/install/#customizing-paths

And I've completed all steps but I'm stuck on the site.php step.

Currently my file looks like:

return Flarum\Foundation\Site::fromPaths([ 'base' => __DIR__, 'public' => __DIR__.'/public', 'storage' => __DIR__.'/storage', ]);

I am trying to host this under my root domain, all files are currently under public_html (cpanel). I have not worked with the DIR syntax before, not sure what that represents. Looking for some specifics, if Im just hosting on my root domain, what to update my site.php to.

Thank you friends 😀

return Flarum\Foundation\Site::fromPaths([
    'base' => __DIR__,
    'public' => __DIR__,
    'storage' => __DIR__.'/storage',
]);

Do not forget,

"...move all the files inside the public directory (including .htaccess) into the directory you want to serve Flarum from. Then edit .htaccess and uncomment lines 9-15 in order to protect sensitive resources. For Nginx, uncomment lines 8-11 of .nginx.conf.

You will also need to edit theindex.php file and change the following line:

$site = require './site.php';

'base' => __DIR__,
'public' => __DIR__,
'storage' => __DIR__.'/storage',

Finally, check config.php and make sure the urlvalue is correct."
