The file permissions for core WordPress files and directories are managed for you. They cannot be changed.
As your site’s wp-content
folder is the only folder that has files consistently being modified, the contents of wp-content
may need file permissions changes, especially if you have moved files/folders here from a previous host.
Directories should have permissions of 755
, or rwxr-xr-x
. Files should have permissions of 644
, or rw-r--r--
.
If you feel that you are having file permission issues, please contact Customer Success.
