Directory listing on homepage

Community support

Hi,
My site is REDACTED <-- Sorry, I only added it because the rules said I had to, I don’t want my site to be public.

Basically what I want is to have a directory listing, the same one that shows when you create a folder and go to the folder URL, and remove /?dir= from the URL
Here is an example.

My site is just a simple repo I can keep track of my files with. Obviously I could just put my data into a folder and access it via the URL, but I want the link to be as short as possible, hence my domain me simple and straight to the point.

The only thing I have tried, is adding “Options +Indexes” to the .htaccess file

My homepage directory only contains the temp folder I created for the example given here, and an empty .htaccess file.

Good day @HudsonJD!

You could create a folder named index in /public_html and move all your content to /public_html/index

Then when you access your site your content should be listed in Apache24 style.

I just did as you said and did not get the desired effect, I want the content listed from the root site. Without needing to put anything on the end of the link like /index

My post was flagged and hidden for “spam” ?

How is this post spam?

#5

Unsure the automatic system did it …

#6

ahh I see, instead of posting the picture I tried to link to the /temp folder for the example

#7

Someone just told me that it’s not working for me because 000webhost doesn’t allow you to use the root page like that? Is that the case?

I’ve developed a simple script for you to use. Just add the code below into index.php
