Did you just hear about WordPress file permissions and are wondering if yours are set correctly? Or are receiving an error that you don’t have the right permissions? Either way, this is the right post for you.
File permissions are a very important part of protecting your website. They keep your site locked down while giving WordPress itself, its plugins, and other scripts the ability to modify what they need to.
But sometimes things can go wrong. Errors may pop up, or file permissions get changed to improper values. In that case, it’s helpful to know how WordPress file permissions work and how to use them.
