  1. Use this for Plugin folder

    define( 'WP_PLUGIN_DIR', $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/somedir' );

    Use this for WP-content folder

    define( 'WP_CONTENT_DIR',  $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/somedir' );

  2. Use this code…

    define( 'WP_CONTENT_DIR', dirname(__FILE__) . 'path/to/wp-content' );

define( 'WP_CONTENT_URL', 'http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . '/path/to/wp-content' );
