I am working on deploying wordpress on my personal server just to learn a little bit more about it. I have made it all the way to the admin page but when I try to customize a theme I get a 403 error
You don't have permission to access / on this server.
I have set all folders to 755 and all files to 644 permission. Is there some other security issue that I may need to change maybe in .htaccess? I am running Ubuntu 16.04, apache2, wordpress 5.0, and php 7.3.
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
