Understanding File Organization

In WPX Hosting:​

  • The main website’s files are located directly in the public_html directory.​
  • Files for additional websites (sub-sites) are stored within the domains/yourwebsite.com/public_html directory.

All files for a website are contained in the public_html folder for their respective site.
