Other folders & files

There are the common folders “css”, “js” and “images”. These are obvious and for CSS and JS folder i will explain later on in depth.

 

.htaccess file :#

This is a file that’s being used by the server (definition: A .htaccess (hypertext access) file is a directory-level configuration file supported by several web servers).

Inside there are a few lines that are commented, used by the Retina Images feature. Will explain later on about the Retina images feature.

Also there’s a caching feature (will speed up your website). It’s enabled by default but it will only work if the server’s Apache support these features (eg: mod_deflate, mod_expires or mod_headers)

 

_retinaimages.php file:#

This is used by the Retina images script. Will explain later in the documentation about it.

 

humans.txt#

An initiative to know the creators of the website. Contains the information about humans to the web building. This file is NOT needed so don’t worry too much about it, just don’t forget to edit it.

 

robots.txt#

Information on the robots.txt Robots Exclusion Standard and other articles about writing well-behaved Web robots. Our websites are constantly being scanned by robots. This file tells the bots what not to scan. For example there are some folders you simply don’t want to be scanned and shown in the search results.
