  • Whichever files you want to edit through the template editor should be CHMOD’ed to 666. You can chmod all the wordpress template files, or just go ahead and chmod them all, so you have the option of editing any file you want thru the template editor.

    You will have to chmod all files you want to edit via the WP template editor. The actual filename is always written above the textarea. If you want to make changes for example to the “Main Index” aka “index.php” you’ll have to go to the directory where WP is installed and “chmod 666 index.php“.
    If you want to know more about what chmod does and how it works, you should have a look at the Man page.

    This might help too:
