Mike, has anyone gotten back to you yet?

Not to spoil anybody's cash flow, but changing the attributes you're looking for isn't PHP, but mostly HTML or CSS. You could probably do it yourself.

How can I change the folder attributes?

I think I have nearly the same problem. I know I have to change the atrributes of the theme folder but I am not able. I tried it with FTPUploader and with the provider WebFTP. Especially the folders of themes I got with Spartacus are not to change. Maybe there is an easy solution but couldn find it.

Hi!

You can configure the spartacus plugin to indicate, which directory/file permissions it can set to new folders. This you might need to change for future downloads.

To fix the permissions of current directories you either need to ask your provider to set those, or you might try the 'fixperm.php' script mentioned in the FAQ on www.s9y.org.

Best regards,
Garvin

It works!

Changing Attributes of Folders with fixperm.php

Posted: Thu Aug 24, 2006 8:00 pm

Maybe I should describe for the other people how I reached the target...
I created a file called fixperm.php
wrote the following in it:

<?php
chmod('/the/way/to/the/target_folder/', 0777);
?>

(the target_folder is the folder which attributes has to change)
I copied the fixperm.php in the root folder of Serendipity
then I called that script via http://myblog/the/way/to/the/[b]root[/b]_folder/fixperm.php

done!

and again, thank you Garvin
