The add-on I'm about to release to beta is on the large side. It has a folder structure for the add-on to house class files, css files, images, cache files, etc. The primary php file itself resides in the forum root. Is that a no-no?

Thanks!

You can definitely put your main php file in the forum root. I'm not talking about after the files have been uploaded, I'm talking about when they are downloaded.

I prefer a structure like

ZIP File -> Name of Mod Folder -> UPLOAD -> All files and folders to upload relative to forum root
ZIP File -> Name of Mod Folder -> All XML and TXT files

It's not a requirement just my preference. Check out any of my mods if you want to see what I mean.
