    Hi,

    Do you have a list of the required rights on each directory to makie amember work properly. I am using a testing server and to get this working I just 'chmod 777 foldername' (test server is on private network) but I would like to know what the correct rights are so that I can secure my system when I go public.

    Thanks

    Chunk, I would be happy to write this specification, but it depends more on hosting settings, than on aMember.

    For installation, you need to have directories,
    amember/
    amember/data/
    amember/templates_c
    writeable for PHP.
    After that, you can change permissions.

    After, when script installed, directory "amember/data/" must be "writeable for PHP" if you are using htpasswd* plugins.

    What does mean "writeable for PHP"? Unfortunately, answer is very depend on your hosting. Usually it is 707, sometimes,
    770, and very rarely it is 700. I hope you understand what I mean.
