WP Total Cache – How to Change Permissions

  • RE:
    Deactivate and delete any other caching plugin you may be using. Make sure wp-content/ (temporarily) has 777 permissions before proceeding, e.g.: # chmod 777 /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs/wp-content/ using your web hosting control panel or your SSH account.

    I want to ensure I do this correctly before I do the install. I actually installed it without doing this and then discovered that I had missed this step, so I have uninstalled it using instructions from another post and deleted the wp total cache file in my hosting. I’m not sure where exactly to put

    # chmod 777 /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs/wp-content/

    Does it go in wp-content/index ?

    Thanks. Looking forward to having it installed.

    (I did read general information about changing permissions but it’s not totally clear to me for this situation.)

    Also, if I select wp-content/index.php , I can go into a permissions folder and there are simply boxes to check or uncheck. Right now the “Web Users” is set to read. Is it that I also need to check off write and execute…thus, temporarily giving complete admin permissions?

    Thanks
