   I'd like to add the capability of uploading pictures to the "contributor" role.

   basically i want them to be able to upload pics etc without being able to Publish, only submit for review.

   is there a php file i need to adjust? thank you

   Hi,

   Check with this plugin to edit the user role in wordpress:

   searched forever then posted this, and then i find a thread about this topic.

   seems as if "role-manager" plugin is the only way.

   but it must be affecting a php file somewhere in the install right? anyone know?

   thanks.

   You could try this:

   <?php
   function add_role_caps() {
       global $wp_roles;
       $role = get_role('contributor');
       $role->add_cap('upload_files');
   };
   add_action ('admin_head','add_role_caps');
   ?>

   Just add that to your "functions.php" file.
