 * I’m creating a site where I need clients to be able to upload artwork for me 
   to print. I’m using capability manager and created a new role allowing them to
   upload files, but I would prefer that they weren’t able to see all of the other
   files that have been uploaded. Either only able to see/edit their files or even
   none at all would be ok. Any suggestions?
 * thanks,
    matt

 * This is a WordPress capability, and this is the capability behavior. Who can 
   upload files, can see all uploaded files.
 * To do what you want, you would need an upload plugin. Unfortunately I don’t know
   any that does what you want.

 * I think Role Scope plugin may have an option that lets you do that.
