 * After the resent update the plugin keep reporting this error:
 * “W3 Total Cache Error: Could not change permissions 777 on /var/www/gamerslounge.
   dk/wordpress/wp-content back to original permissions 777.”
 * I have manually checked permissions and independent of what I do the error persists.
 * What do I need to do to fix this?
