 * Hi,
 * Have a check with these options:
 * -> Assign 766 recursive permissions to wp-contents folder.
    -> Disable all the
   plugins and have a check. Enable plugin one by one to find out the culprit. -
   > Make sure that you have set the correct path for upload settings.
 * Thanks,
 * Shane G.
