create a folder programatically if it doesn't exists

Jacob

I came across a strange issue with different hosts. I have developed a theme with some custom functionality. The problem is with creating a directory. My theme works in few hosts like Bluehost or HostGator but not in like GoDaddy etc.

So I need to check with program if the directory exists. If not exists then create it.

You can try this:

if (! file_exists('path/to/directory')) {
    mkdir('path/to/directory', 0777, true);
}

First, check if the directory exists with the function file_exists(). Then use mkdir() to create the directory with 0777 or required directory permission.
