Im new to this and cant edit my layout

[jaybarber1 +]

Hi, Im trying to edit my layout . When I go to layout.tpl it show this error

This file is not writable. Please CHMOD it to 777 if you wish to use this editor.

I have no idea how to do that

I am running v4.1.4 hosted Keep in mind that I'm new to this and I have read Documentation. Do I need to download anything in order to edit my layout and do more things? If so, can anyone tell me step by step instructions. Thanks for any help!

Posting twice with the same question is not going to get responses any quicker.

Which template are you using, a link to your site please. It appears that your file is set with the wrong permission. In this instance, as you are new to it all, you are probably better off contacting your hosting provider and asking their support to change the file for you. You may find and work out a way to do that in your hostng control panel if you wish to try and do that. Then look up file permissions on the internet and that will allow you to understand what this message is about.

To change the layout , you will need html and css skills. You will need an editor (there is a built in one within your 68c admin control panel) and an FTP client to transfer files.
