Hi,

I have made s simple site (for practice) and used the method outlined by Jamie Pittock to put my templates in a folder called assets in the site root. I also created a new folder called uploads and placed that there as well.

so in the site root I have the following folder/file structure
assets
system
images
themes
uploads
index.php
.htaccess

The problem I have is if I go to the url http://site.com.au/assets I can access the folder and see all templates etc. I have checked permissions and they are the same as every other folder.

If I try to go to the uploads folder I created I get the expected “Directory access is forbidden” message.

Would anyone have any idea what Ive screwed up to allow that to occur?

Hi, davib.

Just take the index.html that’s in the images/uploads folder and copy it over to you assets folder.

Does that help?

yes it helps so much it works!!

I am concerned I didn’t know that! Do I need to see a doctor?

Thanks heaps Sue!

No doctor needed. 😊 Glad that worked for you. Feel free to start a new thread if you have any more questions.
