How to modify hosting file permissions

From the cdmon Control Panel, in the hosting management, you can modify the permissions of your website's files and directories. To change permissions, in the 'Security' section click on the option File and folder permissions

In this section you can change the permissions (read, write, execute) of your hosting files and folders. You just need to select the file/folder and modify the permissions using the Configure permissions icon, represented by a key.

 

 

If you want to modify more than one file or directory at the same time, select the files using the checkbox on the left and choose the option Modify permissions from the "Actions" dropdown menu. 

 

On the next screen, you can modify the read, write, or execute permissions for the file owner, the group corresponding to the FTP user, and the public user www.

 

 

Additionally, if you check the option Apply permissions recursively, you can propagate the changes recursively. This means that if you change the permissions of a folder, the changes will also be applied to all its contents and subfolders.
