Hello Everyone, new and excited user here...
I discovered Piwigo yesterday, and have managed to get it installed today - while several other applications failed - but still have loads of questions about making it work.
I'm running the installation on a home NAS: a Synology DS218j. It has built in packages for self hosting, blogging, media server and galleries. But trying to install a 3rd party package/script is tricky.
Even after installation there are tricky bits. Trying to add a plugin or update an element has generated errors.
At the moment I'm trying to install the Physical Photo Move plugin, and am getting a Permissions error.
An error occurred during the files (path_creation_fail) extraction.
Please check "plugins" folder and sub-folders permissions (CHMOD).
What I'd like at this point is a list of which folders need what permissions. It looks like I will have to manually go through each one.
In the case of this plugin, do I want to grant all permissions (777) or a reduced set?
thanks in advance for your replies!
Piwigo version: 2.10
PHP version: 5.6/7.2
MySQL version: MariaDB 10

At my development webserver it is per directory 770 and per file 770
Usually it is per directory 755 and per file 644 and this is performed using:
sudo find . -type f -exec chmod 664 {} \;
sudo find . -type d -exec chmod 775 {} \;
BUT, please read the documentation of Linux webservers carefully before continuing this path.

Thank you Netcie.
I wouldn't do a blanket permissions change without some assurance it's okay. I may try this one folder to see what happens.
I'm having various other problems getting Piwigo up and running, so I'm not risking the installation by messing around with permissions.
