    Trying to re-install the Carousel plugin. Apparently my site robbyday.info was not compatible with php 7.2 and I couldn't access my site at all, so I had Dreamhost change my site back to php 5.6 (which they say they are phasing out). I updated to the latest version of LayTheme (which I hope will be compatible with php 7.2) but when I try to install carousel I now get this string of messages:

    Installing Plugin from uploaded file: laytheme-carousel.zip
    Unpacking the package…

    Installing the plugin…

    Could not create directory. /home/robday18/robbyday.info/wp-content/plugins/laytheme-carousel/

    Plugin installation failed.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

      Looks like some classic read write issues.

      Could you check (via FTP-Client) if your wp-content folder is set to 755?
      If «No»: Set the rights to 755 and try again.
      If you don’t know how to do this Dreamhost surely can help you with this.

      Hope that helps!


      PS:
      PHP 7.2 shouldn’t be an issue. I’m using 7.1–7.3 with different installations and they all work just fine.
