Why can’t Linux FTP account delete folders?

Used ftp account to upload wordpress system. The FTP tool I use is: FileZilla. When deleting this file, basically all the files are deleted, but there are still some empty folders that cannot be deleted, and the status panel displays 550 Remove directory operation failed. What is going on? ?

At first I thought it was a problem with user permissions, and I have been fiddling with this permission

In fact, it has nothing to do with permissions at all, because the permissions are already 777, which is really messing around. .

When I accidentally checked Baidu information, I found a solution

Just find the server menu in the FilleZilla tool and check the option to force display of hidden files

Then delete the wordpress directory. OK, it was successfully deleted. It feels so comfortable after a long time~

The reason why it cannot be deleted is because there is .htaccess in the directory in wordpress. Hidden files can be deleted even if they are not visible, so as long as the option to force the display of hidden files is turned on, you can delete them comfortably.
