title: chmod a file so all under it are 755
body: <p>i have a so-so problem, the problem is that,from what i understand, 755 is for folders, and 644 is for files, 644 is read only etc...</p>
  
  <p>now my boss says that one of our clients had a WP gallery problem where when they'd upload
  a gallery/pictures etc, that not all of them would work. so my boss says "its a permission problem" </p>
  
  <p>Now, when i go in there, its what its supposed to be, the folders are 755, and individual files, 644....</p>
  
  <p>that said, i tell her this is ok, and she says no no the individual files have to be 755 too..so that ppl can see them....i tell her, well 644 is read only so anyone viewing them should have access.</p>
  
  <p>long story short, she wont be satisfied until all files are 755. When i looked at the permission for the parent folder(gallery folder) its also 755.</p>
  
  <p>is there a way to make ALL the inner files 755 instead of doing it one by one manually?</p>
  
  <p>***EDIT- i need to make it so that in the future, whenever a file is uploaded via whatever method(in his case worpress) that it comes in automatically as 755.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advanced.</p>
