 * Hi Tobias,
 * I have used the search function before opening this thread and have found related
   but not really identical questions asked concering your excellent plugin (Thanks
   so much!)
 * I would love to be able to give a single specific user the ability to replace
   a single specific table by uploading a file (xls / csv) – nothing more, nothing
   less 😉
    The user really just needs to see the “choose your file for upload” 
   dialog and then get notified if the table has been successfully replaced or not.
 * I know there is one other possibility to accomplish this process (via your Automatic
   Periodic Table Import extension and FTP upload of the files) but I feel strongly
   that my users would be better off using a simple web-interface than having to
   install a FTP client on their machines first and getting used to using it…
 * Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated 🙂
 * Thanks
 * Thomas

 * Hi Thomas,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * Sorry, I’m not aware of a solution for this. TablePress does use the WordPress
   roles and capability system, but there’s currently no easy way (without custom
   code) to assign access rights on a per-table basis, or to reduce the user interface
   to only that file upload form.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
