Set Correct Permissions for WordPress via Shell

You need shell (SSH) access to execute the following commands from the root directory of the WordPress site.

Set directory permissions to 755

Recursively set all directories to 755 permissions (-rwxr-xr-x):

find /var/www/clients/client23/web62/web -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;

Set file permissions to 644

Recursively set all files to 644 permissions (-rw-r--r--):

find /var/www/clients/client23/web62/web -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;

Note

In the above command, /var/www/clients/client23/web62/web/ is the root directory of the WordPress site in question.

These are the minimum recommended permissions for securing a WordPress installation.
