Boojum Posted November 28, 2003 Posted November 28, 2003 I have posted a version of this question in Back-End Issues--because it involves FTP and my hard disk as well as CPanel--and have not yet received clear guidance. So I thought I'd try here in hope of a better result. The issue: When I created subdomain, sub-subdomain and sub-sub-subdomain folders in "public_html" via CPanel, they were placed loose in the folder at the same level. The problem: If I match this configuration on my hard disk (in my "Web Pages" folder), I have to use folder names like "common_sense.issues.nation_and_world.squort.com" for some of the sub-sub-subdomains. And that brings me up against the famed 31-character limit for file/folder names. The question: Shall I (a) place my sub-sub-subdomain folders inside their respective subdomain folders, etc., on the server via CPanel or my FTP client? and/or ( do the same for said folders on my hard disk? I have gotten the impression that the server-side "public_html" folder should generally match the hard disk-side "Web Pages" (or the like) folder. But if I make the latter match the former now, I will not be able to assign the proper full names to each sub-sub-subfolder. This issue is really delaying my site restructuring--someone please help!
