 * Hello,
 * When I want to update your plugin, I get an error message that tells me that 
   the files can not be copied and that this problem may be due to an inconsistency
   in the file permissions.
 * Have you ever had this case and how to correct it?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fproblem-update-plugin-file-permissions%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * File permission have to do with your host and it’s not specific to the plugin.
   Check with your host.
