Configuration File (conf.php)
From: Installation
Contents
conf.php is the core configuration file. You can find it inside core root folder.
Moving conf.php to another folder
conf.php is in the core root folder. If you want to store it in another folder:
1. Move conf.php file to another folder. For example, one level back from core root folder (../core.php).
2. Create conf.php file in the core root folder like this:
<?php
define('j_conf_file_place','../conf.php');
include __DIR__.'/'.j_conf_file_place;
?>
j_conf_file_place const is needed for update process. Do not just include conf.php file without defining it.
Using conf.php file inside core root folder is safe but sometimes you want to get ftp permission to a user and don't want to let him/her to have access to the configuration file. In that case, you can move conf.php file to one step back and only let the ftp user have access to the core root folder.
