setting write permission (chmod 777) and other settings.

[nudimensionz]

Hi, I was wondering how I set write permissions for setting up the prestacart 1.4.

I need to set them according to what is stated on the set up screen. I also need to know what not to do so I don't screw it all up. Like I'm not suppose to set write permissions for certain files or something like that.


Write permissions on files and folders:

/config
/tools/smarty/compile
/tools/smarty/cache
/tools/smarty_v2/compile
/tools/smarty_v2/cache
/sitemap.xml

Write permissions on folders and subfolders/recursively:

/img
/mails
/modules
/themes/prestashop/lang
/themes/prestashop/cache
/translations
/upload
/download

also how and where do I set these settings:

Allowed to open external URLs
PHP register global option is off (recommended)
GZIP compression is on (recommended)
Mcrypt is available (recommended)

I'd be so grateful for any help I can get!

you should be able to change your permission in your hosting control panel. what hosting do you use? Go to files and select a check box next to the file your want to change permission for thats how my hosting permissions work I am not sure about others and I would like to know if you need to change permissions for upgading say in the settings.ini.php file do you have to change them back after your done the upgrade?

If your not sure how to change the permissions just call your hosting. I sure they will gladly walk you through it.
