 * Just did fresh install of WP and installed your plugin. When I try to submit 
   image, I get the error below. Already tried your FAQ. Nothing shows up in my 
   media library or posts.
 * `Error: Post not created. Please contact the site administrator for help.`

 * Weird, it could be that some setting or feature is not able to process.. For 
   example, that particular error can happen if you are including image upload field
   in the form, but your server or permissions or something is preventing the image
   uploads. So that’s the first thing that I would check. Let me know your results.

 * You can’t upload images or videos when you use free plugin only with the paid
   PRO VERSION.

 * Incorrect, nobith. With the free version of USP, you can upload any number of
   images only. With the Pro version of USP, you can upload any number of ANY file
   type, including images, video, audio, PDFs, Word documents, [and just about anything else](https://plugin-planet.com/usp-pro-allowed-file-types/).

 * Thanks for the reply. My host says folder permissions are set correctly. They
   are going to try to replicate the issue. Meanwhile, any other ideas?

 * If you are using any other plugins, try deactivating them and see if the issue
   persists. Then re-enable the plugins one a time, testing between each, to see
   which plugin (if any) may be causing the issue. Likewise, try switching to a 
   default WP theme and trying again. Basically it’s just a matter of troubleshooting
   to find out why it’s not working normally.

   Thanks.
