访问WordPress文件夹之外的图像文件夹

Question

Can a folder outside of the WordPress directory but still on the server be accessed through WordPress?

I can successfully access files inside my theme folder but I am trying to access a folder full of images outside of the WordPress folder.

What changes need to be made?

$home_directory = site_url();
$home_uri       = home_url();

$vendorLogo = $home_uri. '/clientimages/directory/logo' . $vendor->acctno . '.png';

if ( file_exists( $home_directory . $vendorLogo ) ) {
  echo '<br>';
  printf( '<img class="vendorImage" src="%s"/>', esc_url( $home_uri . $vendorLogo ) );
}

Answer 1

Are you on a multisite? If not then you should be able to access it with a complete URL like http://www.example.com which would be the root of your domain and you probably can't get past that unless it's your own server. You can also try relative URL's like ../ which will get you one directory higher than where your at. Most Wordpress sites get installed in a subdirectory one level below the root and the path to the themes directory is something like this: /installation subdirectory/wp-content/themes/theme directory. If you use a path that starts with a forward slash the Wordpress will add the home_url for you.

So if your trying to get another logo image then you can try http://yourdomain.com/ then add the path to when your image resides.

You can also load images with your media library and in that case you can upload them from your computer thus giving you access to the rest of the world. You can get the url to those images from the media library.
