  • I have the same problem.
    All the wp-content/uploads/2013/december folders of my wordpress sites are CHMOD with 744. I have to change manually.

    Is it a WP 3.7.1 mistake?

    Directories should be 755 not 744. WordPress doesn’t change the permissions.

    Is it a WP 3.7.1 mistake?

    No. ??

    Yes it’s a 3.7 problem. If I use 3.6 I don’t have any problem…

    I also think it’s caused by the last update because all of my 3.7 sites have the problem. And the 3.6 haven”t.

    @esmi : i have exactly the same problem as jhonb so is it really a good idea to open a new thread?

    Yes.

    Ok tell me when the thread is on ! ??

    Ask your hosting company – see Jan’s post above.

    It’s not a hosting system. I have my own dedicated server and with 3.6 I had no problem… It’s a wordpress 3.7 problem…

    You seem to be the only person with this particular problem, so it’s obviously server/site specific.

    If I install wordpress 3.6 now… it works. Why?!

    I’m not the only one having this problem ??

    I’m running about 15 3.7.1 sites and none of them have this problem. Approx 11 million other people are using 3.7.1. How many do you see reporting a problem here? If there was such a general problem in WP 3.7.1, we would have been over-run with support topics on the subject but that hasn’t happened. So it seems valid to assume that this is server/site specific.

    Hi,

    I have also had this problem this morning. Since updating to 3.7.1, it is the first time I have had a new upload folder created (first upload since the beginning of December) and the permissions were set as 755 and not 744. I had to change them manually via control panel. When I checked with 123-reg, it’s supposedly a known issue.

    However, I’m non-technical so I don’t know how/why permissions are generated when a new folder is creasted on the server. If anyone wishes to share how this works, it’d be much appreciated.

    Humor me: can you ask your host what the default umask for creating directories?
