Vill du fixa error i fil- och folderbehörigheter i WordPress?
Felaktiga behörigheter för filer och foldrar kan orsaka error på din WordPress site under upload. Dessa error kan hindra WordPress från att uppladare images, störa skript och minska säkerheten på din website.
I den här artikeln visar vi dig hur du enkelt fixar error i fil- och folderbehörigheter i WordPress.
Hur fungerar behörigheter för filer och foldrar i WordPress?
Fil- och folderbehörigheter i WordPress kontrollerar vem som kan läsa, run eller ändra webbplatsens filer. Ditt WordPress-webbhotell använder speciell programvara som Apache för att hantera och visa dessa filer på webbläsare.
Dessa behörigheter är avgörande för att WordPress ska kunna hantera filer, skapa foldrar och utföra uppgifter på servern.
Om behörigheterna är felaktigt inställda kan det hindra WordPress från att göra saker som att skapa foldrar, uppladare images eller runna skript. Felaktiga behörigheter hotar också säkerheten på din WordPress site.
När behörigheterna är felaktiga brukar WordPress vanligtvis alertera dig om issues som att du gillar att inte kunna editera filer eller skapa foldrar. Ibland kanske du dock inte ser specifika meddelanden om error.
Vilka är de korrekta behörigheterna för filer och foldrar i WordPress?
Med korrekta Settings för fil- och folderbehörighet allow WordPress att skapa mappar och filer. Följande Settings rekommenderas för de flesta användare:
- 755 för alla foldrar och underfoldrar. Detta allow the website owner to read, write, and execute folders.
- 644 för alla filer. This allows the website owner to read and write files while others can only read them.
Med detta sagt, låt oss ta en titt på hur man enkelt fixar fil- och folderbehörigheter i WordPress. Vi har två metoder, och du kan använda snabblänkarna under för att hoppa till din föredragna metod:
Metod 1: Fixa WordPress behörigheter för filer och mappar med ett plugin
För att fixa error i fil- och folderbehörigheter i WordPress måste du vanligtvis använda en FTP-klient. Om du är säker på att du kan lösa detta error manuellt, kan du hoppa till den andra metoden.
Om ej, så kan du använda denna plugin-metod med All-in-One Security plugin. Detta plugin har en utvald funktion för att ställa in de rekommenderade behörigheterna för filer och foldrar med några clicks.
Denna tutorial kommer att använda den fria versionen av plugin, men känn dig fri att använda den betalda versionen för mer avancerade funktioner. Du kan läsa vår review på All-in-One Security för mer information.
Först installerar du pluginet All-in-One Security i WordPress. Du kan kontrollera vår Step-by-Step guide om hur du installerar ett WordPress plugin för mer information.
När du är klar går du till WP Security ” File Security. Navigera sedan till tabben ”File Permissions”.
Här kommer plugin att skanna de kritiska WordPress core mappar och filer och markera alla inställningar för behörighet som är osäkra.
Om pluginet hittar en folder eller fil med behörighet error, kommer kolumnen ”Recommended action” att ha en knapp som heter ”Set recommended permissions”.
För att fixa det klickar du bara på det så ändrar pluginet behörigheterna för filen eller mappen.
När du har gjort det ska Column ”Recommended action” nu ändras till ”No action required”.
Metod 2: Fixa WordPress behörigheter för filer och mappar manuellt
Först måste du ansluta till din WordPress site med hjälp av en FTP-klient som FileZilla eller appen File Manager i din cPanel. När du är ansluten går du bara till rotmappen på din WordPress website.
Efter det måste du välja alla foldrar i root directory och sedan högerklicka för att select ”File permissions”.
Detta gör att dialogboxen för filbehörigheter dyker upp.
Nu måste du enter ’755’ i det numeriska värdefältet. Efter det måste du klicka på checkboxen ”Recursion into subdirectories” och sedan välja alternativet ”Tillämpa to directories only”.
Klicka på knappen ”OK” för att fortsätta. Din FTP-klient kommer att börja ange behörigheter för foldrar och underfoldrar. You will have to wait for it to finish.
Därefter måste du välja alla filer och mappar i rotmappen på din site WordPress och sedan högerklicka för att select ”File permissions”.
Dialogboxen för filbehörigheter visas.
Den här gången måste du enter ’644’ i ’Numeric value’ boxen. Efter det klickar du bara på checkboxen ’Recursion into subdirectories’ och väljer sedan alternativet ’Tillämpa to files only’.
Klicka på ”OK” för att fortsätta.
Din FTP-klient kommer nu att börja ställa in filbehörigheter för alla filer på din WordPress site.
Om den här metoden inte fungerar rekommenderar vi att du kontaktar din hosting provider. Det kan finnas ett error hos dem, och de kanske kan hjälpa you. Läs vår guide om hur du på rätt sätt ber om support för WordPress för fler tips.

I searched around for other articles and I found this other article which mentioned something about using chmod, it qoutes the following ”If you are looking to change the permission for the wp-config.php file, you can use the following command for the suggested change as cited earlier –
chmod 600 wp-config.php”, so I would like to know if this is advisable and where can I find the command line?
WPBeginner Support
That is mainly a different way to do what we cover in the article and is not always a beginner friendly method.

Chmod is mainly used as a command directly on a Linux server. You connect there using SSH and use the chmod command to change the permissions on the file. If you have shared hosting, you don’t always have access to data using SSH. A better choice for shared web hosting is an FTP client, in which you can also set file rights, but more easily and securely.

I have a problem with my file manager there’s a folder which isnt either 644 nor 755, it is 600 and whenever I try to change it, I get an error alert saying that permission operation failed, how can i solve that?
WPBeginner Support
You would want to reach out to your hosting provider and they should be able to assist you with the permissions issue.

Hi, great article. Just to confirm, I understand step 1 ” you must select all folders in the root directory” and then its the next step that I’m no sure about: ”Next, you need to select all files and folders in the root folder of your WordPress site…” So that would be the folder: ”Public_Html? Because that’s where the folders I see in your screenshot reside. And your not selecting all the folders again under the root directory as in step 1 right?
Thanks and best regards
WPBeginner Support
It depends on your host but in the folders selected you would want to see wp-admin, wp-content, and wp-includes to make sure you are in the correct location.

This actually worked with the step one (Permissions and 777). For some reason i wasn’t able to delete two folders from the ”Upload”-Folder and then it worked. For some reason i had to re-start Filezilla because it was getting frozen but it worked out. Thanks.

I’ve been searching like crazy and still can’t find my answer. Any idea what’s going on? When I follow the directions to right click and look for ”File Permissions”, I don’t have that option. So I’m stuck and still can’t upload images anymore
Any advice would be much appreciated.

Hello, I followed this article, but I can’t connect to my website after changing all permissions.
Do I have to wait?
Or something wrong happened?
it would be great if anyone who know about this help me.
WPBeginner Support
It would depend on if you are seeing an error message on your site, for a starting point we would recommend reaching out to your hosting provider to see if they find any errors.

Does anyone have any idea why, every time wordpress automatically updates, I have to go back in and reset file permissions? This page is really useful for fixing this issue, but I just want it to stop!

You may want to reach out to your hosting provider to ensure there isn’t a setting that could be causing that from their end.

How do you handle the request for FTP credentials when you’re learning WordPress on a local host? I read this article but the sharing and permissions menu on a mac does not show a numeric value field.
WPBeginner Support
It would depend on the specific issue you’re running into but rather than needing FTP for a local installation, you would want to navigate to where the files are on your computer.

For files you state to give permissions 644 for owner,group,others. Why do you give file read permissions (4) to others. Is there some reason others require file read permissions, why are all files not set to 640 ?
WPBeginner Support
Then users would run into an issue trying to view your content.

Thanks for the tutorial. I could fix this problem for files already on the website, but everytime new files are uploaded they have the same problem again!

having this issue on a locally hosted site that I’m using for test purposes only. So I don’t have FTP access to the files and changing their permissions from Windows Explorer is not working. Any other ideas?
The main WP directory and the Themes directory are both unwritable according to the WP System Tools.

You would want to check with the localhost tool you are using for your site as which one you are using would determine the options you have available and the possible issues.

If the permissions are reverting then you would want to reach out to your hosting provider to ensure that there isn’t a setting on their end that would modify the permissions as well.

Hi, I should change file permission:
/ 755 750 WARNING
Can somebody tell me, where to find this ”/” in C panel? To be honest, I don’t know, what this sign / means. Thank you, have a great day! Suzana
WPBeginner Support
If you’re using the file manager on your host’s cpanel then your site’s files are normally under public_html as that is where most FTPs connect to your host.

Thanks for this article! I thought I had completely fudged my site. None of my uploaded media or even CSS styling (I have no idea why that was effected) was displaying properly.
I had tweaked my permissions earlier but must have done it incorrectly. Your fix was the solution to my problem!
Many thanks

Thank you for this insightful article – I will keep it as a ressource for cases of curiousity (and panic, of course :D).
What I am struggling with are ”wp GET”-lookups with result 404 when playing around with cacheing.
My wordpress installation is in a subfolder named wp, not in the root folder.
Which rights would I have to give this specific folder?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi
I have wordpress installed on a local server and I’m getting ’no data could be retrieved from the servers’ when I try to access the slider revolution library.
Is this because of the file permissions error described here? I’ve set all of the user permissions to ’full control’ in my index.php file to no avail. I don’t seem to have the option to change to the numeric permissions you describe above. Really stuck on this one so any help would be appreciated.
thanks & regards

I changed 755 to all folder and 644 to all file. But still cannot upload images to Media and cannot install new plugins.
PS: I upload whole wp-content folder from another hosting to my new hosting and extract it.
Please give me some advices.
Thank you.

This is because you can’t just copy item from a server to another without tweaking the Database. The database must know that the ones you just copied ’exist’

I’ve a problem after i changed permissions to be like above, this error appears :
”Application error

This works for all types of PHP applications sitting on a website server and not only WordPress. My host denied me access to all folders and files including login page and registration page.
Little did i know that all my files and folders were still to 777 during local development. After changing folders and files recursively to 755 and 644 respectively it worked.
LB
Hi there, Im having issues in that I dont have sufficient permissions to change permissions through the FTP client… unable to create new folders. very frustrating, have spent ages looking for a solution. Running a WP multisite running on Amazon EC2). Thanks.
Suyog
@LB , you have limited access to your FTP account. Please contact Amazon to get you full access. or if you have server access then change permission in filezilla server.
