 * Hi all,
    Do you know how can I let this plugin to be available for a non admin
   user, redactor for instance ? Do I have to modify my function.php file ? I use
   User Role Editor but I dont see which capability has to be added.
 * Thank you in advance.

 * I would also like to know the answer to this question. I have an editor whom 
   I want to rename my media files, but I don’t want to give him admin rights. I’m
   also using User Role Editor.
 * I tried enabling “activate_plugins” but that didn’t work. Please advise.

 * Go to Dashboard->Settings->Media File Manager.
    Select user roles and press “
   Save Changes”.
