How to deal with the file permission?

When I migrate my wordpress site to Yunohost(using a plugin wp-staging). I did the following command:

chmod 777 /var/www/
chown www-data /var/www/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/wp-staging/backups/

and many command whenever I see this on the Filezillar


However, the migrate plugin needs to create new folders, and also to delete tmp files. It’s really tedious to change the permission of each folder.

If your request is related to an app, specify its name and version: Wordpress 6.3.0~ynh1

Description of my issue

Is there a way that I can give all the permission to all the files & folders and then reset them back. As for the migrate plugin, how can give the proper folder permission?

thanks in advance for your help.

Just a thought, maybe on the wordpress installation page, offer two choices of secure wordpress, and then customizable version. In this case, it will be easier for customize the wordpress site.
