    hey, i was wondering if someone might be able to help me with this, i'm having an issue where i set up a test server and i'm trying to install some wordpress plugins. they're in a folder in the wp-content (as they are included with a theme) but i get the following error when i try to install them:

    i have the permissions set on the wp-content folder to 755 and all the folders/files are owned by the nginx user. my only guess is that i don't have something set correctly in my nginx setup in the beta.locationindie.com.conf file.

    can someone point me in the right direction? thanks!

    1. How did you install wordpress ?
    2. What wordpress plugin does the url or php belong to ?
    3. Which Centmin Mod version 123.08stable or 123.09beta01 ?
    4. Was it via centmin.sh menu option 22 auto installer Wordpress Nginx Auto Installer (WP Super Cache) ? If so the default wpsecure conf file at /usr/local/nginx/conf/wpsecure_${vhostname}.conf where vhostname is your domain name, blocks php scripts from executing in wp-content for security
    Below links you can see examples of setting up specific wordpress location matches to punch a hole in the wpsecure blocking to whitelist specific php files that need to be able to run.

    i installed wordpress manually with the files from wordpress.org. i set up the vhost using option 22.

    errr... i'm not quite sure? it's a set of plugins that the theme needs after installing the theme. i tried looking around but i can't seem to tell where the script is located :(

    1.2.3-eva2000.08

    that was super helpful! i looked into the documentation on this. i tried adding plugins to the wp secure conf, but couldn't narrow it down properly (as stated above). instead, i just commented out the wpsecure include line in my vhost conf and was able to finish the install process from there. i figure i'll uncomment it after i'm finished setting up the website to re-enable it.

    thanks for the help, i'll come back to this thread if i have issues after re-enabling the wpsecure conf file.
