[folder not writable] causes slow site and other problems

    Hi, I′ve installed a new theme ELECTRO purchased from themeforest. This theme is using Redux Framework. From the beginnig on I had problems with a very slow Website.

    Demo version is on this link: https://181.224.152.232/~gamecent/testera

    Looking into gtmetrix shows that the site needs 15-20 seconds to load. Initial Wait time is 2-3-4 seconds.

    Looking for some reasons I found out that in WP admin panel Tools > Redux Framework – System status I had an error in the “Redux Data Directory Writable”: To allow data saving, make…../wp-content/uploads/redux/ writable.

    Of course, I have tried to make folder writable, I set permitions to 755, 775, also tried 777, but system always shows warning.

    I also tried to delete folder, and then to create new one, but no luck.

    Same for a installation I did on another domain.
    I am using SiteGround hosting.

    Any known similar problems??

    Best Regards

  • Same here, different theme: “im Event – Event & Conference WordPress Theme”, Redux 3.6.5 version, different hosting
    Changing permissions is not fixing issue

    Same issue, I found a related github issue and it was stated that deleting the wp-content/uploads/redux/ dir and letting redux recreate it would fix it. Which I did, and it was recreated with permissions 775, but still seeing the error under status.
