Edit2: I'm renaming the question from "WP didn't add theme automatically" to "WP can't create new directory" because I found out that the problem is a little bit more complex. The same error is going on on any operation I do that involves writing data to /var/www/html/wordpress. I already tried what has been suggested here, tried also to gpasswd -a www-data sudo and nothing... I have no idea now what to do. /Edit2
I was just following this tutorial, I did exactly like he did from 02:30 to 03:30: added a folder in /wp-content/themes/mytheme, inside mytheme added a style.css and index.php. When I went to dashboard it wasn't added automatically so I tried to upload the theme.zip manually. Now I'm getting the error message "Could not create directory". I already set chmod -R 777 to wordpress folder but still having this
Edit:
Output of ls -la /var/www/html/wordpress:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 fabio www-data 20 Jan 4 16:45 /var/www/html/wordpress -> /usr/share/wordpress
Output of ls -ld /usr/share/wordpress:
drwxrwxrwx 5 www-data root 4096 Jan 8 15:46 /usr/share/wordpress
In my theme folder I got only index.php and style.css, that's how they are atm:
index.php:
<h1>Hello, world!</h1>
style.css:

I put those github links just because I got no other link to put, I think this won't make any error, right?
