Problem granting write access in order to configure CiviCRM settings file

I thought I did this correctly but it still gives me the same error:

The user account used by your web-server - microcen - needs to be granted write access to the following directory in order to configure the CiviCRM settings file:
//home/xxxxx/public_html/wp-content/plugins/files

Try 775, i.e. click the middle Write box. Doesn't look like the most secure setup I ever saw however.
