Title: Trobleshooting Code Last modified: August 24, 2016 --- # Trobleshooting Code * Resolved [joym](https://wordpress.org/support/users/joymoleta/) * (@joymoleta) * [11 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/trobleshooting-code/) * Hello, I would like to try your plugin before I install it on my live site. However, when I go to the settings I see a bunch of warnings. I have my WP installed on a subdirectory, but Gator wants to install on my root. I’m not really sure how to proceed.

This would apply to any cache plugin as they would all need to write the advance- cache file, cache directory, etc. For multisite, you’d need to install it on the parent site. * Thread Starter [joym](https://wordpress.org/support/users/joymoleta/) * (@joymoleta) * [11 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/trobleshooting-code/#post-6020084) * Hello again. I tried addressing a few of the items, but when I refreshed the page the warnings were still displayed. I then reversed my changes then just pushed the “Install” button. It seems Gator Cache has been installed. Are the warning messages just a precaution or are they messages that are generated according to your setup? It’s a bit confusing. * Is there a way to verify that it’s running? Thank you. * Plugin Author [GatorDog](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gatordog/) * (@gatordog) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/trobleshooting-code/#post-6020188) * If it’s properly installed, you’ll no longer see the install menu and you’ll see the GatorCache management panel. When the cache is enabled, you can view the page source on your website and you’ll see comments at the end of the page that list the pertinent cache information. * However, it sounds like your webfiles cannot be written to by the webserver, so no cache plugin is going to work out of the box without changing file / folder permissions.
