Ever wanted to update your wordpress core & plugins from admin 😀 ? this fix to allow WordPress automatic plugin installation/update without FTP:
A) Changed the owner and permissions for the entire WordPress installation, assuming you installed WordPress in /Users//Sites:
$ cd /Users/<username>/Sites #or path to parent directory of your source code directory $ sudo chown -R :_www wordpress $ sudo chmod -R g+w wordpress
B) Added the following to /Users//Sites/wordpress/wp-config.php:
define('FS_METHOD','direct');
finally, click update button in your wordpress back-end – this is what you really wanted, right ? 😉
