[1.2.7] Widget gives permission warning

  • I use the Simply Instagram widget in my blog’s sidebar, and recently, it began outputting a permissions warning before listing my photos. The error:

    Warning: file_put_contents(/home/public/blog/wp-content/plugins/simply-instagram//cache-api/recentmedia.json): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/public/blog/wp-content/plugins/simply-instagram/simply-instagram-functions.php on line 287

    You can see the error on the front page of my site. A screenshot can be found here.

    My site is currently hosted at NearlyFreeSpeech, which is notorious for being very particular about file permissions. I update my plugins via a shell command.

    Obviously, having a PHP warning like this on my front page is ugly. How do I resolve the issue it’s telling me about–or, failing that, simply hide the warning?

    Thank you.

    Hello Southwest,

    I can still see the permission error on your site. Did you change the permission on cache-api folder?

    Please let me know if it works.

    Thanks

    Hey southwest, how did you wind up fixing this error? I’ve updated permissions to the appropriate folder/files and the error is still displaying. Thanks in advance!!!
