Greetings

I recently installed bbPress as phpBB and SMF did not work for me. Everything’s working peachy, except for one.

I uploaded a theme into the my-themes directory, and I now cannot access it. At all. I also cannot access the my-plugins folder. Their permissions both are 0750 (drwxr-x—). Because of that, it gives me a 550 error, stating that I do not have permission to access the folder. I can’t even change the permissions.

Is there a solid way to fix this?

Thanks in advance,

Michael

Not to worry – I am simply uploading to the bb-templates instead. Works fine.

Most FTP programs will allow you to change the permissions on the folder, or you might be able to do it from your host’s control panel. It would be better to fix the permissions on the my-templates and my-plugins folders and use those instead of bb-templates and bb-plugins.

I had huge troubles changing the permissions, so I simply deleted the my-templates and my-plugins folders (as there was nothing in each one) and re-created them using the necessary permissions.

All is working fine now – thanks.
