Hi,

 

I am trying to find the root path for Heart Internet.

 

At the moment when I login to the FTP it starts with the public_html folder.

 

I have tried:

 

/home/domainname/public_html/foldername/includes/header.php

 

/domainname/public_html/foldername/includes/header.php

 

/domainname.com/public_html/foldername/includes/header.php

 

/home/domainname.com/public_html/foldername/includes/header.php

 

But none of them seem to work. Any ideas?

what are you trying to do? what do you need the root folder for?

I'm obviously very much a novice when it comes to web development, but trying to learn.

 

I'm trying to follow this guys instructions to create templates for the header and footer:

Morning,

 

I just checked two clients on Heart and both use /home/sites/theirdomain.com/public_html

 

Hope that helps.

 

Edit: Example Includes

<?php $root_path = "/home/sites/theirdomain.com/public_html";
include($root_path . "/foldername/footer.php"); ?>

Thanks for the tip BrowserBugs.

 

I actually ended up using this code instead:

 

<?php include('includes/header.php'); ?>

 

which seems a lot simpler. It seems to work fine in a desktop browser. However when I try it on my mobile those links are non responsive. Any ideas why this might be the case.

Using Chrome tools what do you mean by 'not working'?

OMG, I've figured it out and it was something so simple and obvious. Surprising how you can see things with a good night sleep. Sorry for wasting your time BrowserBugs
