 * Hello:
 * I think I’ve discovered a bug. When activated, this plugin excludes comments 
   of other users. Logged in users can view their own comments, but no one else’s.

 * To FIX it.
    1. Open /plugins/view-own-posts-media-only/includes/class-view-own-
   posts-media-only.php 2. Search on line 55
 *     ```
       $hide_other_posts_comments = $this->lib->get_option('hide_other_posts_comments', 1);
         if ($hide_other_posts_comments) {
           // Show comments for posts of this author only
           add_action('pre_get_comments', array(&$this, 'author_posts_comments_only'));
         }
       ```
   
 * and edit `if ($hide_other_posts_comments)` to `if ($hide_other_posts_comments&&
   is_admin())`
    3. Finish -> now users can see other comments on front-end
