Hey everyone, I recently started hosting a website on a droplet, and am having some difficulty with file uploads. I am currently using Ubuntu and Nginx. I’m very unfamiliar with back-end programming and accessing the terminal on my computer. I have been accessing my website through PuTTY, logging into the root user on my computer, and adding/editing html files through the “nano” on there. I would like to upload an image to a webpage, and really have no clue where to start. I can’t link in the image with a “src” in some <img> tags, because I really have no idea where to link to within my src tags. If someone could give me a detailed explanation, as I’m a beginner, I would appreciate it. Thanks!
