 * We installed the htaccess protect plugin first.
 * Now I’m logging in and am not able to install any plugins and all the original
   plugins are not visible on the wordpress dashboard. And installing new plugins
   gives the following error: installation failed, could not create directory. In
   addition checking file system permission shows that the plugin directory is not
   writable.
