Let Apache/PHP modify folder/files
I used this to enable a php script to modify folders/files on a local instance of a website that used MAMP on Mac Mavericks OS to do PHP. In this case, it was using Kirby as a CMS, and it's Plugin panel needed this level of access.
sudo chmod -R +a '_www allow read,write,delete,add_file,add_subdirectory,file_inherit,directory_inherit' ~/path/to/site
