# mp3 folder?

 * I tried creating a folder for the mp3s on my site, to keep them all together 
   and tidy, but every time I do that, WordPress can’t find them, and so clicking
   on the link generates a 404 error. If I just leave the mp3s in the public_html
   folder, everything’s fine. But I put them in an ‘mp3 folder’ inside public_html,
   it stops working. Is there a setting in WordPress I can tweak to do what I want
   to do?
 * One reason I ask is cuz the theme I’m using, Sliding Doors, has its own folder
   for images, which works well. Hmm…maybe I should be posting this on the Sliding
   Doors forum.
 * But if you know the answer, please feel free to enlighten me. 🙂

 * Point at the MP3 link that WP is returning 404 on and look in the lower left 
   corner of your browser window at the URL displayed when you point. If you can’t
   bring up the MP3 file at that URL then it is entered into WP incorrectly. For
   one thing, don’t use relative file paths in WP – all paths should either start
   with `http://` or at the least with “/” – `"/mp3-folder/myfile.mp3"` not `"mp3-
   folder/myfile.mp3"`

 * What you talked about is all new stuff to me, but it sounds good. I’ll check 
   it out. Thanks.
