don't worry ... so easy tray to ssh@yourserver and run
ln -s /path/to/Laravel/storage/app/public /path/to/Laravel/public/storage
this will act same like
php artisan storage:link

Symlink to storeage folder in the public
Hi, I need to create a symlink from storage to public storage. The problem is is that my directories have changed because its on shared hosting. So I am unable to run php artisan storage:link.
The server is running linux. My folder structure is like this
[~/public_html/public]#
./ .htaccess css/ favicon.ico index.php phpinfo.php storage/
../ TTobacco/ error_log fontawesome/ js/ robots.txt web.config
[~/public_html/public/website]# dir
./ .styleci.yml ecommerce-backup.sql routes/
../ app/ error_log server.php
.editorconfig artisan node_modules/ storage/
.env bootstrap/ package-lock.json tests/
.env.example composer.json package.json vendor/
.gitattributes composer.lock phpunit.xml webpack.mix.js
.gitignore config/ readme.md
.htaccess database/ resources/
So I need to create the symlink from the public/website/storage to the public/storage.
Please help, I tried what was written in the google search but it just wasn't doing what I needed. I cannot see any of my images.

You realise that you risk the security of your site by putting the whole project in the public_html folder?

In shared I have:
....Laravelup // main laravel here
....public_html
........laravel
............uploads
............css
............etc etc
That folder structure works fine for me.
Notice main laravel is out of Webroot. Images go in their folders under uploads. I use the asset helper to display.
See also http://novate.co.uk/deploy-laravel-5-on-shared-hosting-from-heart-internet/
And
http://novate.co.uk/install-laravel-5-2-on-fasthosts-shared-hosting/
These are just examples each host is a little different. But get main laravel out of any public access above Web root.
