<![CDATA[Auto create symlink]]>Hi,
Is there a way to create symlinks for these app folders?
It does take a lot of time figuring out which app is which while I have several LAMP apps running...

Should be much easier than going through the root server.

However usually we try to not expose such structure and technical detail to the users as it makes it hard for us to make changes in those underlying systems if we know users rely on them. Ideally we have a more high level abstraction for such and in this case I would first like to understand why you are trying to access the files like this in the first place? Does the sftp, filemanager or webterminal not work?

(the issues around creating such symlinks will be a more obvious when we have multiserver where such local filesystems will change a lot)
