If you’ve been storing files, experimenting, and building web sites for fun on your OSU ONID web server, it’s probably time to clean up the space—the public_html directory as well as other areas.
Cleanup is important before beginning a new web project, as you won’t want any old files confusing you or confusing the dynamic functions you’ll be using.
- Delete files you know you won’t use again.
- Move files you’re aren’t sure about into a temp directory.
- Put files for each web site in separate directories; each named similar to the site name. For instance:
- oregonstate.edu/~oniduserid/vietnam
- oregonstate.edu/~oniduserid/juggling
- oregonstate.edu/~oniduserid/cs195
