A WP user asked about the best way to restrict access to the WP directory (on the WordPress forums) and I posted an answer without realizing that I should have explained myself further. Dougal added his own post which, I thought, was really well put and deserved a mention. He explains the intricacies of securing WordPress and in the process, explains file/directory permissions for UN*X/Linux servers as well. Good, quick, relatively complete explanation.
Here is the link to the discussion.
An avid fan of business, education, technology and finance. I lead a lean, highly focussed and capable team of Java Back End developers and Front End developers through a maze of complex software wizardry to fulfill the web maintenance needs of a large chemical manufacturer. As per Myers-Briggs Personality Types, I am an ESTJ. I pride in a project completed on time and according to plan. My hobbies include all kinds of technology, anything that I can taste and anything that goes fast or flies in the air. I like to read business books and comics in my spare time.
