I came from Vesta, 90% of all sites are in public_shtml folder. most recently developed ones are in public_html.
Anytime LetsEncrypt renews certificate for 90% of sites that are in public_shtml, it somehow changes site location to public_html folder. Sites of course wont load and i have to go to control panel and just change it back to public_shtml and that takes care of issue for another 60-90 days till cert renew again. I cant figure out what's causing this or how to fix this. Please help.
Default site folder changing after certificate renewing

Is there any particular reason why would you keep files in public_shtml?
Because SSL will work without any problems with files stored in public_html, if that's the reason why you are keeping them in public_shtml.

No particular reason. Its just how it was initially created years ago, i think back in its days reason ssl files were suppose to be in public_shtml.
I dont mind moving them to public_html but i have tried moving files and setting folder to public_html and wordpress site didnt want to load. It seems like maybe it needs to be set elsewhere as well and im not sure where that is. I prefer just make it work how it is now without moving anything if possible.
