Thank you! </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/270389#post-1134655 Sun, 12 Jul 2009 06:51:50 +0000 feastoffools 1134655@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Anyone have links to sites doing this? Would love to see it in action. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/270389#post-1134610 Sun, 12 Jul 2009 03:58:24 +0000 holyinsomniac 1134610@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Actually, it is pretty simple. You will be able to accomplish the following:<br /> 1. Hide the Dashboard from the subscribers view. Only thing visible to subscribers will be their profile.<br /> 2. Enable File Upload functionality for Contributers. Your contributors will be able to upload images<br /> 3. Hide the dashboard and tools and media menu for all contributers. Your contributers will be able to upload images but will not be able to view or delete any other images. </p> <p>Here we go:<br /> You need 2 plugins to do this for you. First you need to get the Role Manager plugin and enable "Upload Files" for the contributer level. Then get the WP-Hide Dashboard plugin from <a href="http://www.kpdesign.net/wp-plugins/wp-hide-dashboard/" rel="nofollow">http://www.kpdesign.net/wp-plugins/wp-hide-dashboard/</a>, which will hide the dashboard for all subscribers. Most probably you don't want your contributors to see the Dashboard or Tools or the Media menu. Media menu includes the upload functionality but it is quiet easy to hide. You just have to edit the wp-hidedashboard.php file. Here is an excerpt from the author:</p> <p>How do I change this to hide the dashboard and tools menu and help options from other roles besides Subscriber?</p> <p>To hide these from other roles, you will need to edit the plugin in a plain text editor and make the following changes:</p> <p>Subscriber → Contributor:<br /> Change !current_user_can('edit_posts') to !current_user_can('upload_files')<br /> Subscriber → Author:<br /> Change !current_user_can('edit_posts') to !current_user_can('create_users')<br /> Subscriber → Editor:<br /> Change !current_user_can('edit_posts') to !current_user_can('manage_options')<br /> There are 3 instances of this code in the plugin - make sure you change all of them.</p> <p>Now, to disable the Media menu which includes the upload options. Search for <strong>unset($menu[75]);</strong> in wp-hidedashboard.php file and Add <strong>unset($menu[10]);</strong> after it. </p> <p>Save and upload and thats it. Now your subscriber or your contributor </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/286182#post-1130085 Wed, 08 Jul 2009 08:42:01 +0000 gen-superman 1130085@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>BTW,</p> <p><a href="http://wordpress.org/support/topic/287644?replies=1" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/support/topic/287644?replies=1</a> </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/286182#post-1124965 Fri, 03 Jul 2009 16:44:09 +0000 andrea_r 1124965@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Since you're using WPMU + BuddyPress, this plugin really doesn't suit your needs. It was made for single WP, not MU.</p> <p>What you want is a different plugin entirely. Try this one:<br /> <a href="http://wpmudev.org/projects/Menus" rel="nofollow">http://wpmudev.org/projects/Menus</a></p> <p>And I think there's a redirect on login one there as well. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/286182#post-1124552 Fri, 03 Jul 2009 04:31:38 +0000 gen-superman 1124552@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>First, let me say that the author of the plugin did a very nice job on this plugin. However, the author could have put a little bit more meat into this plugin.</p> <p>The plugin has no settings. It works right off the bat once installed. The dashboard really isn't gone, it's just being forwarded to the profile page.</p> <p>I like the concept, but since I have buddypress installed, I really didn't want users to just go to the old WP-Profile page. Mostly because the buddypress and wp-profile page don't sync together.</p> <p>The good thing is that the code can be easily hacked to point/forward to a different page other than the profile page. But, you have to do this from the backend. By hacking the pointed/forwarded to url, I was able to point to a new page or back to the front page. Mostly, because when users login, they are always pointed to the dashboard. I really didn't like that idea. I mean, I can edit the widgets/sidebar to point to most of the necessary urls that users need.</p> <p>They seriously need to consider getting rid of the dashboard, it is pointless to have, especially if you have buddypress profiles installed. (Which leads to conflicts)</p> <p>As for this plugin, please consider adding settings to the admin dashboard section, that allows the main admin (WPMU) to decide if:</p> <p>- They want to point to a certain url (Which you can use a text field for people to input the url that the regular users will be forwarded to.)<br /> - Please keep the idea of Admins being able to see the dashboard. That is very cool, but regular users have little purpose to see the dashboard any more. Especially with buddypress now in existence.<br /> - Create a setting that allows admins to decide whether to just send to front page or to disable dashboard and profile screens all together, which just sends them to the front page. Only the admins should be able to see the dashboard.</p> <p>But, regardless, thank you for the code. Remember everyone, that you can simply just edit the code to point to any page you want, but only by editing the plugins php file. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/270389#post-1083398 Tue, 26 May 2009 03:55:53 +0000 smplejohn 1083398@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>It may not have worked b/c I did this for contributors, not authors. I think authors could already upload... may be wrong though. </p>
