WP Super Cache: getting warning message (5 posts)

    My site is http://www.DishragDiaries.com.

    After activating WP Super Cache I got this warning message. Please advise:
    Warning! /data/19/2/14/55/2340707/user/2569946/htdocs/WordPress/wp-content is writeable!

    You should change the permissions on /data/19/2/14/55/2340707/user/2569946/htdocs/WordPress/wp-content and make it more restrictive. Use your ftp client, or the following command to fix things:chmod 755 /data/19/2/14/55/2340707/user/2569946/htdocs/WordPress/wp-content/

    What do I need to do to fix this? (I am clearly not a techie in any way.)
    THANK YOU in advance.

    basically you need to use an ftp client
    or
    go to your host's file manager - there should be a way to change the folder permissions

    Samuel B - thanks for replying, I should point to that codex page in the error message!

    Ok. I have verified that permissions to wp-content are 755, yet I still get this message. Any ideas?

    I'm afraid not. It's something on your server. I wouldn't worry too much about it.
