cPanel’s File Manager listed several folders — containing plugin-generated build assets — with the type “httpd/unix-directory.” The “httpd” prefix made it look like the live site might be serving an incorrect Content-Type header to real visitors, an Apache MIME-type problem.
⚡ Quick Fix (TL;DR)
The Culprit: In cPanel's own File Manager, that label is filesystem metadata describing the object as "a Unix directory" — nothing to do with what the live website actually sends visitors over HTTP.
The Fix: No fix was needed — the label was confirmed to be a filesystem-only artifact, not a real HTTP problem, and the investigation was closed.
