 * I am curious why my contributors role has access to certain plugins. How and 
   or where can I fix this? Under the users dashboard certain plugins show up that
   are accessible to them. I cant have this. Please help!!

 * This is not default behaviour.
 * The permissions associated with each role are configured in the database.
    Save
   yourself some time, and download a ‘user roles’ plugin.
 * This table shows what the default permissions are in wordpress:

 * Any suggestion on a good plugin for this? I downloaded one called user role editor
   but it shows that the subscriber only has level_0 access. So based on that those
   couple plugins should not being showing up in the users dashboard. It also would
   not allow me to set any plugin permissions.
