Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted December 6, 20168 yr Hello, Today I updated to v4.1.17 without any problems. I notice however that there are many files on the server (within the IPBoard installation) that have file permissions set to 777 There are over 1500 files set like this. I won't list every file!, nut as well as the uploads directory almost every file (not directory) within the theme folder is set to 777 Is this how they are supposed to be configured? Is there a way to fix file permissions if not? Thanks, Simon PS - may not be related to the version upgrade, just coincidentally I was browsing the files today and noticed it.

Should I delete the themes directory when the site goes live? Sorry if this is a silly question - I am new to IPB so just figuring out a few things.
