Issues with permissions on CentOS

Hello, I have installed Sabnzbd+ on CentOS and I am having issues with the permissions. I installed a package from the nuxref repository, and Sabnzbd installs as a service with its own user and group. Every new download I have to chmod the download folder, and it's beginning to annoy me. How do I make it so both Sabnzbd and my user group have full access to the folder? I already tried adding myself to the Sabnzbd group, vice versa, and adding myself to both groups. Neither of those three workarounds seem to work, and neither does the -R option when using chmod.

In Config > Folders you can set the permissions for Completed folders. Will this do what you need?

I'm pretty sure it will, and I certainly appreciate the quick reply. I shall report back to mention if that solved my problem. Thanks! This problem has been annoying me for weeks.

Setting the completed folder attribute to 777 solved the issue completely, I appreciate the help.

777 seems unnecessary. 770 or 775 should be enough for what you need?
