Question

I would like to do the following simple thing:

When a folder is referenced in a web site (i.e. href=’folder1/pic.jpg’), I want the server to actually look in another folder (i.e. ‘folder2’), where the actual ‘pic.jpg’ will be.

I believe this can be done by connecting to the server via SSH and then setting something up there, but I don’t know what.

Could anyone give me an example?

Thanks!

Answer 1

You can try going into your document root (cd) and executing

ln -s folder1 folder2

I think this is the thing in ssh you’re talking about. Alternatively, you can edit server config there, but that requires more input.
