 * Unfortunately I am still not sure what is causing it, if I am able to pinpoint
   anything I will definitely update you here. Let me know as well if they find 
   anything for sure.

 * I think it is something with the panel / hosting server. Who hosts your site?
   You may want to contact them, in my case there is something definitely misconfigured
   on the hosting server.
 * Just thought you’d like to know

 * But permissions on what? I tried setting the wp-admin/includes/class-wp-filesystem-
   direct.php to 777 to no avail… is it another file / directory I need to change
   permissions on?

 * Oh also, if anyone is wondering, or before anyone asks here are the lines from
   the class-wp-filesystem-direct.php it is referencing:
    The line 200 is:
 * `return copy($source, $destination);`
 * The whole code is here:
