I am using it and it works just fine for me.

In reply to: File Permissions | Plugin CentralI am having the same problem with file permissions. I am on a VPS and logging in as the account owner on cPanel and trying the file manager there does not help. I need to go to the Power Panel as root to get rid of the offending files, haven’t tried SSH yet but it may work as well.
The problem also comes up when I use the WordPress automatic plugin updater. FTP will not remove or chmod the files even though I can edit them in the built-in plugin editor.
My hosts support provided the following information:
PHP is compiled as Apache module in the VPS. This will cause PHP to run as ‘nobody’ user and PHP scripts are able to write only to directories with complete write permission. That is why the files/directories need 777 permissions to execute.I can see that permissions need to be looser for the VPS but how can a plugin or a built-in part of WordPress lock these files so that FTP can’t be used to change them?
The problem is that you can’t chmod on FTP as the account owner and you can’t have a root enabled FTP account. What else can be done to fix this?

In reply to: blank page in 2.5I have the same problem after the upgrade. I’ve tried different themes but I still get the “No posts matching your criteria” on the home page. They show up okay when I choose tags or monthly views so what has happened?
