Hi,
Is it possible to move the database configuration file outside the htdocs folder, for better security?
If it's possibile where I've to insert the new path?
Thank you

Check this:

And it can be located outside of htdocs folder if required. It can be something like this.

include '../../outside_folder/config.php';
