XF 2.3 CHMOD folder?

[Mister.T]

Hi,

Not sure if this is a bug, but it no longer says to CHMOD folders? data and internal_data?

Thankyou

If that message doesn't show then presumably the folders are already writable by PHP.

Thanks, They was set to 755, should I keep them at that or make them 777?

It's not strictly necessary that they are world readable/writable (777), as long as the user the web server runs as can read them, and the user that PHP runs as can read/write them. If you're not having issues then I wouldn't worry about it.

It's not strictly necessary a really bad idea that they are world readable/writable (777)

Pretty much nothing should ever be 777.

As it says 777 on the documentation.
