Comment:

 To clarify, only `WP_CONTENT_DIR` and `WP_CONTENT_URL` need to be defined.
 `WP_SITEURL` is unrelated.

 The primary use of these constants isn't to rename the folder, it's to
 support subdirectory installations with WordPress as an external.
 For example, in the below scenario we've got WordPress installed into a
 subdirectory with it's wp-content directory, however we're overriding it
 and using the one in the parent directory instead.
 {{{
 /public_html/wp-config.php
 /public_html/wp-content/ (This would be used)
 /public_html/wordpress/
 /public_html/wordpress/wp-content/ (This wouldb be ignored)
 /public_html/wordpress/wp-admin/
 }}}
