Wordpress installed on a Sub-directory

Question

I've already read this and followed the steps, however I can't get it work yet.

• My Wordpress URL: http://mydomain.com/web (this is where it's installed)
• My Site URL: http://mydomain.com

I've copied index.php and .htaccess to /public_html which is the root directory.

/.index.php

<?php
define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . 'web/wp-blog-header.php' );

/web/index.php

<?php
define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . 'wp-blog-header.php' );

/.htaccess (the same as /web/.htaccess)

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /web/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /web/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

I can still access to my admin page on http://mydomain.com/web/wp-admin, but Wordpress content media isn't recognized yet because I once changed "wp-content" folder name to "media" (using iThemes Security plugin) and this to wp-config.php

/web/wp-config.php

<?php
define( 'WP_CONTENT_URL', 'http://mydomain.com/web/media' );
define( 'WP_CONTENT_DIR', dirname(__FILE__) . '/web/media' );

So, media (plugins, themes, language) isn't recognized.

I've tried with http://mydomain.com/wp-admin and it doesn't redirects me to http://mydomain.com/web/wp-admin either.

Looks link you're missing the forward slash / which is probably causing it to not locate the right files

/.index.php

<?php
define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/web/wp-blog-header.php' );

/web/index.php

<?php
define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/wp-blog-header.php' );

/.htaccess (the same as /web/.htaccess)

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /web/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /web/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

/web/wp-config.php (delete what you have and replace with this right above the thats all part )

define('WP_CONTENT_FOLDERNAME', 'media');
define('WP_CONTENT_DIR', ABSPATH . WP_CONTENT_FOLDERNAME );
define('WP_CONTENT_URL', 'http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . '/' . WP_CONTENT_FOLDERNAME );
