votes

I run my own apache,and php for development and I installed a Wordpress blog but when I try to add plugins from admin it asks for FTP access. I don't use FTP and don't want to use.

I installed the ssh extension for PHP (sudo apt-get install libssh2-php)

But still it is asking FTP details .

Please help me out struggling from 2 hours .

Thanks

Allow the webserver to write to the filesystem directly (chown -R www-data wordpress), it will not ask for FTP credentials if it can write directly.
