    Thank you in advance for any help. While trying to install a sitemap I changed permissions to 666 in my admin and all subfolders. Does anyone know how to change them back? I get a page not found when I try to access admin. My site is displaying the following: Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/home/content/p/h/a/username/html/wp-includes/load.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/php5/lib/php') in /home/content/p/h/a/username/html/wp-settings.php on line 19

    Hi,

    You can either contact your web hosting service provider or from the control panel you can reset the permissions.

    I suggest you to reinstall wp-includes and wp-admin folders again and have a check.

    Thanks,

    You should be able to change them by FTP'ing to your site. Just reverse what you did with the same program or access method.

    Thank you Shane and Saildude. I'm going through and manually changing permissions back in all the subfolders..quite a process. Lesson learned though.
