+Hosting with Subfolder
+======================
+
+If you want a baseURL like **http://localhost/myproject/** with a subfolder,
+there are three ways.
+
+Making Symlink
+--------------
+
+Place your project folder as follows, where **htdocs** is the Apache document root::
+
+ ├── myproject/ (project folder)
+ │ └── public/
+ └── htdocs/
+
+Navigate to the **htdocs** folder and create a symbolic link as follows::
+
+ > cd htdocs/
+ > ln -s ../myproject/public/ myproject
+
+Using Alias
+-----------
+
+Place your project folder as follows, where **htdocs** is the Apache document root::
+
+ ├── myproject/ (project folder)
+ │ └── public/
+ └── htdocs/
+
+Add the following in the main configuration file, e.g., **apache2/conf/httpd.conf**:
+
+.. code-block:: apache
+
+ Alias /myproject /opt/lamp/apache2/myproject/public
+
+ AllowOverride All
+ Require all granted
+
+
+Restart Apache.
+
+Adding .htaccess
+----------------
+
+The last resort is to add **.htaccess** to the project root.
+
+It is not recommended that you place the project folder in the document root.
+However, if you have no other choice, like on a shared server, you can use this.
+
+Place your project folder as follows, where **htdocs** is the Apache document root,
+and create the **.htaccess** file::
+
+ └── htdocs/
+ └── myproject/ (project folder)
+ ├── .htaccess
+ └── public/
+
+And edit **.htaccess** as follows:
+
+.. code-block:: apache
+
+
+ RewriteEngine On
+ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ public/$1 [L]
+
+
+
+ Require all denied
+ Satisfy All
