Hi Michael!

Thanks for the reply - I followed the instructions and changed the root accordingly.

Do I have to restart or refresh the nginx container afterwards? Unfortunately, the sites still opens the old directory after I changed the root from “…/old/” to “…/old/wordpress/”.

Do I miss something here?

Thanks for your help!
