 * Hey
    I run a directory site on wordpress where users can create a listing and
   others can search and book this listing.
 * my problem is that at the moment EVERY registered user can add photos to any 
   listings created by any users.
    I want to change the user role or whatever is
   needed to achieve that ONLY the listing owner can add/edit photos to his/her 
   listing.
 * I tried to fix this problem with a plugin called USER ROLE EDITOR, where i can
   add or change capabilities to user roles, but this does not seem to help because
   every registered user does have the same user role.
 * Is it possible to hide the “add photos” button from everyone besides the listing
   owner or something like this ?
 * thanks for your help !
