    Hey guys, so I was added a new theme called medical to my job's website and changed the permalinks to reflect %postname% at which time I was prompted to change my .htaccess so I did that successfully but the problem I'm having now is that I can't save any changes to my style.css file within the editor and wordpress tells me it's a persmission issue, so my question is where do I make the changes?

    check what permissions you have by logging in your host account the normal permissions is 755 for folders and 644 for files and wp-content/uploads is 777

    do i have to go through each one individually, or is there a list of suspects?

    Use FTP to navigate to your wp-content/themes/current-theme folder and try changing the permissions on the files inside this folder to to 766. If you still have problems, try 767 or 777.
