I have built a wordpress site that requires that the users log in to be able to access the content. However, I want to make a few files publicly-accessible.
The only clue I have found so far recommended creating a new folder under the wp-content folder, but this did not work. E.g. http://yoursite.com/wp-content/public/readme.txt redirects to the login page.
I think that would depend how you've made your site private?
I've used this plugin to set sites to private https://wordpress.org/plugins/jonradio-private-site/
It also has settings to exclude any URLs from being set to private.
There are a bunch of other plugins that do similar thins.
