Support » Fixing WordPress » Editors can't see images uploaded by other users

  • Since the last update of WordPress the editors of my website can’t see images in media library other than the ones uploaded by themeselves.
    I already tried reviewing user permissions and creating a new user with the same privileges as the ones used by editors.
    As an admin I can see all the images.

    Hi wptit, and thank you for your hint.
    I already tried doing so, but being not so wp-savvy, I’m not sure what I should do.

    I guess the right section of the document is this one:

    edit_others_posts

    Since 2.0
    Allows access to Administration Panel options:
    Manage > Comments (Lets user delete and edit every comment, see edit_posts above)
    user can edit other users’ posts through function get_others_drafts()
    user can see other users’ images in inline-uploading [no? see inline-uploading.php]

    I’m using a plugin called User role editor to handle all user permissions, and everything seems apparently ok: editors can edit others’ posts.

    Do you think I should look into the code (scary!)? What should I look for?

    Thanks,
    Ale
