Hey guys,
first of all I would like to point out that I am quite new to Codeigniter in general.
I want to upload the codeigniter 4 framework onto my shared hosting website, in order to build an webapplication based on it.
So far so good, I uploaded everything and it worked out quite well (saw the message, could generate new views, etc.).
My problem is the following:
the directory on my server is: public_html
If I upload the frameworks directory as it is onto that directory, people can access my files like the env file.
I struggle with "hiding" the directories and files right in order to be secure.
I checked the manual for ci4 but it didn't quite help me.
I understand that my public_html needs to be mapped to the "public" folder provided in CI4. But where shall I save the other folders? A directory above?
Sorry if my question seems silly to you, but I can't get that sorted out at the moment.
I am very thankful for any help!
Kind regards,
Paul
