On my site, in Post SMTP Settings, Advance tab, there is temporary directory set to /tmp. Next to it is written “invalid” in red.
Can I still use the plugin normally, or does it matter that it no longer says “invalid”?
Can I create a new temporary directory folder named “temp” and write the path in Post SMTP Settings, Advance tab ?
If so, where should I create that new folder ?
Best regards
]]>Here is my setup:
1. using a macbook pro with OSX Mavericks,Wordpress3.7.1 and MAMP Pro (PHP: 5.3.27, MySQL 5.5.33, Apache 2.2.25) for localhost work
2. ElegantThemes: Nova 3.9
3. 1and1 domain host
I created the website using MAMP on a local host and then uploaded it to 1and1 I created MySQL DB and exported the database using phpMyAdmin, changed from localhost to my domain.com and installed wordpress on the server. The website is up and working after many bumps in the road.
Now, I have some issues:
1. I can’t update photo’s onto the sever. Gives the “no temp folders” error which I’ve researched and am unable to fix. I added tmp folders in several locations on the server with no success.
2. I don’t understand how to install new plugins onto the server. pushing the button from the dashboard gives an error and says to check the forums.
Please help… I’m not a coder but can follow directions and can fake my way through this stuff.
Thanks!
]]>The error I get is:
I’m migrating my websites to my vps host from my old webhost. I have a WordPress plugin, Backwpup, which gives the following error in WP admin:
BackWPup:
chmod 777 /home/forward/domains/mywebsite.com/public_html/wp-content/plugins/backwpup/tmp/ is not writeable!
I read https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Changing_File_Permissions but I have no idea how to protect permissions in wp-config.php since you can’t leave it at 777.
Is this the correct command I add to wp-config.php or do I use another command?

]]>What is the correct chmod for the temp folder, that will not allow malicious scripts to be uploaded/downloaded/executed but will allow images to be uploaded.
Please help.

I’ve got a second WordPress Site on the same server , with the exact same properties, but there is now open basedir error ( yes for security open basedir is on , on both websites ).
When I looked at the google sitemap plugin I saw that
Detected Path: /var/customers/webs/myname/sitemap.xml
is different to the website where everything is fine:
Detected Path: /var/customers/webs/myname/wordpresswebsite1/sitemap.xml
I think that could be the problem, but why ?
And how can I change it ?
Thanks a lot, I couldn’t find an answer on google.
]]>the only problem is this message at the very top of the blog page:

it looks like it’s doing something VERY strange to find the /tmp folder. can someone give me an idea of where I might look to help WP correct this? is there a config setting someplace to specify a temp folder?
thank you,
