After installing WordPress using Baota Panel, you may encounter an error prompt when upgrading WordPress or installing
WordPress Plugin:
Error: There was an error connecting to the server, please check the settings. The error interface is shown in the figure below:
The reason this error prompt appears, requiring you to enter FTP information, is due to incorrect server file and folder permissions.The method to resolve WordPress requiring FTP account information in Baota Panel is as follows: 1. Log in to Baota Panel, enter your website's folder, as shown below. You can see the permissions and owner are 755 and root respectively. The correct settings should be 755 and www, so we just need to modify them accordingly.

2. First, select all files and folders, then click the permissions button in the upper right corner. In the pop-up interface, choose 755 for permissions and www for the owner, then confirm. This will solve the problem.
Solutions for other panels:If you are not using Baota Panel, you similarly only need to change the folder permissions and owner to 755 and www to resolve the issue of requiring FTP permissions when upgrading WordPress or installing WordPress Plugins and Themes.
