 * I am trying to follow instructions to set up a wordpress site. when I tried to
   sort the backup folder this appeared
 * Your backup folder is NOT writable
 * To correct this issue, make the folder /home/ebonykid/public_html/wp-content/
   backup-db writable.
 * Your backup folder MIGHT be visible to the public
 * To correct this issue, move the file from /home/ebonykid/public_html/wp-content/
   plugins/wp-dbmanager/htaccess.txt to /home/ebonykid/public_html/wp-content/backup-
   db/.htaccess
 * To correct this issue, move the file from /home/ebonykid/public_html/wp-content/
   plugins/wp-dbmanager/index.php to /home/ebonykid/public_html/wp-content/backup-
   db/index.php
 * Click here to let WP-DBManager try to fix it
 * Can someone tell me how to follow these instructions. Thanks
 * Dan
