Font upload error

  • I’m trying to add local fonts through the “manage theme fonts” option and I keep getting this error “WordPress lack permissions to write the font assets.”

    I’m have the site set up locally through local (https://localwp.com/). Any ideas on what I need to change to get the permissions correct?

    Hi there, thanks for trying this plugin out!

    Can you try changing the permissions on the wp-content/themes folder of your local site to 755, and seeing if that has any impact on your ability to upload fonts?

    From the command line, that would be chmod 755 /path/to/your/wp-content/themes .

    This post has a nice overview, as well as some other ways to alter them: https://blogvault.net/wordpress-permissions/

    Note: I would only try this on your local or development environment, not production. This plugin is not intended for production environments anyhow, but thought I’d mention it ??
