this doesn’t seem to be working…
that is what is required, however
check with host to see if they allow this
also on some hosts you have to add port number
example.com:21
okay sorry its working now. But can I ask something else: when i try to do things like add pictures to blog posts, it says the parent permissions are not configured correctlt, but i am unsure what folder or files to change the permissions on, and what to change them to…
You need to assign 755 permission to the /wp-content/upload folder. You can check further permissions here:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions#Permission_Scheme_for_WordPress
on some hosts, the 1st time you do this /wp-content must be chmod 777
after that should work at 755
so for 755, what does each of the three (user, group and other) get?
