   Hi

   Is it possible (plug-in / hack) to restrict users to only see the media files that they have uploaded themselves?

   I am setting up a site that will be used to communicate with students and I only want them to see their own uploaded files...

   Cheers
   Glen

   Hi

   Done it

   By using: WP Hide Dashboard - I removed Media from user Dashboards

   I commented out: // 'library' => __('Media Library') in media.php (wp-admin/include)

   Dirty - but works....

   Hi,

   Check with this article:

   http://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities

   Also check with these plugins:

   http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-access-manager/
   http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/role-scoper/

   Thanks,

   Thanks for the input...

   I have set the default for all posts to be private and edited the relavent .php files so that users can not change them away from private. As a result, if I use Role Scoper -- the Admin dashboard stops working.

   Must be a plug-in clash.

   Thanks for the heads up (again ;-) )

   Cheers
   G
