Unable to create directory

    Store Locator Plus needs attention:
    Unable to create directory /home/content/27/10477527/html/mutualprotective.org/uploads/slp/. Is its parent directory writable by the server?

    This began happening when I moved my WP site to a new host. It is now residing at godaddy.com. I assumed that changing hosts, and therefore having to move the database and, as a result, having the underlying host file structure change, messed something up, but I don’t know how to manually retrain the plugin where to look and attempt to write to. I tried deleting the plugin in the wordpress GUI and then manually deleting the files off the server and re-installing it, but that didn’t help.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    btw, this is an error that is listed at the top of each page of the wordpress admin site, not as the result of any specific action.

    You need to fix the permissions on the default WordPress uploads directory to allow writing of files. SLP uses the default setting for the uploads directory that is returned by WordPress.
