I have installed the gallery and gone through the config pages. Now the last page give me an error of "cannot write to .htaccess" I went into my ftp to use chmod but am unable to see the .htaccess file. Any help would be greatly appreciated

If you are using CuteFTP (thanks PixelPoet):
Displaying Hidden Files: You can display hidden files on servers using a special filter command. When configuring your filter, select Enable remote filters (Server applied filter). Type in -rtaF next to this field. Your listing command should now be LIST-rtaF, which will display of hidden files.

Please search the forums next time :wink: If you're not using CuteFTP, post back here.

I searched through the forum a good bit before posting. I am using WS FTP PRO for my FTP.

Hi

In the menu on the right is a white box, in the box type "-la" (MINUS THE ""). Hit refresh. You should now be able to see your .htaccess file.
