Change document root using .htaccess
If you have cPanel control panel or other control panel, your website’s document root is fixed by default.
However there may be a case where you need to change the defualt document for your website. This is possible via .htaccess. You will need to add the following code in your .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^your-domain-name.com$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.your-domain-name.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !new-folder/
RewriteRule (.*) /new-folder/$1 [L]Replace your-domain-name.com with your actual web site name and new-folder with your new destination folder.
