Can't include file outside of a subfolder

[Lunyyx]

Hello My structure looks like this:

/tutorials/windows.php
/includes/navbar.php
/index.php

When I'm on the windows.php file, I try to include the navbar.php with:

include('../includes/navbar/navbar.php');

But, it gives me an error because it can't find the file

I tried with an apache server, and it's working fine

Hi @Lunyyx

Try with __DIR__, example: <? php include __DIR__ . "/../shared/navbar.html"; ?>
