It will be on that server. I suggest you don’t use the theme editor anyway, use ftp and edit locally.
Well I set permission to 755 or 777 because I want to
do it the same way I always do 🙁
755 or 777 .. thats the directory, thats NOT the theme files themselves. read 🙂
Permission 755 or 777 is allowing the blog theme to be rewritten and it solved my problem,I just needed to wait a little after setting 🙂
Yes, but leaving the files themselves with permissions set at that high a level is just you putting your site out there, saying “Hack me! Hack me! I’m completely insecure!” Know what I mean?
If you don’t want some strange person coming along and completley ruining your website, I’d pick a better set of permissions to use for your files. Change them to 644 – or if you plan to keep the setting you have now, when you’re finished making your changes, CHMOD your files back to what they were.
