How to fix wordpress error: Sorry, you do not have permission to upload files.

You've created roles on your WordPress and your editor can't upload images?

Here is a short tutorial to correct its errors:

Ask the site administrator :

He'll have to give you additional permissions (a role above) but if he doesn't want to then he'll have to use an extension and follow the rest of the tutorial.

Installing the extension: User Role Editor

Install the "User Role Editor" extension on wordpress.

Once done go to Accounts –> User Role Editor

Choose the role of the person (look carefully at the role given to him/her)

Then modify in "ALL" the role upload_files (it must be checked)

Then click on Update (then yes, be careful the buttons are exchanged you can make a mistake by clicking on NO.

I put the important images below to help you.
