Hi all

I have an issue with installing Themes or Plugin to my wordpress. Can you pleas help me ?

I have noticed Themes and plugin files are in /var/lib/
– www-data; www-data; drwxr-xr-x; /var/lib/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/addthis
– www-data; www-data; drwxr-xr-x; /var/lib/wordpress/wp-content/themes/twentysixteen

while symlink are in /usr/share/
– www-data; www-data; lrwxrwxrwx; /usr/share/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/addthis
– www-data; www-data ; lrwxrwxrwx; /usr/share/wordpress/wp-content/themes/twentysixteen

I have noticed symlink were not created anymore in /usr/share/
For example, on 4.7.5 upgrade, /var/lib/wordpress/wp-content/themes/twentyseventeen has been created but not the corresponding symlink in /usr/share/

So…
– Is this strange /usr/share/ to /var/lib/ symlink configuration a mistake of mine during the first installation?
-If YES, how to fix it?
-If NO, how to have symlink created again for further themes or plugin installations ?
