I just tested this out on my localhost, so I don’t know if there will be problems down the line…

Open: upload.php

Find:

if ( $pid ) {
	// 0 => tab display name, 1 => required cap, 2 => function that produces tab content, 3 => total number objects OR array(total, objects per page), 4 => add_query_args
	$wp_upload_tabs['upload'] = array(__('Upload'), 'upload_files', 'wp_upload_tab_upload', 0);
	if ( $all_atts && $post_atts = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_type = 'attachment' AND post_parent = '$post_id'") )
		$wp_upload_tabs['browse'] = array(__('Browse'), 'upload_files', "wp_upload_tab_browse", $action ? 0 : $post_atts);
	if ( $post_atts < $all_atts )
	$wp_upload_tabs['browse-all'] = array(__('Browse All'), 'upload_files', 'wp_upload_tab_browse', $action ? 0 : $all_atts);
} else
	$wp_upload_tabs['browse-all'] = array(__('Browse All'), 'upload_files', 'wp_upload_tab_browse', $action ? 0 : $all_atts);

Change To:

if ( $pid ) {
	// 0 => tab display name, 1 => required cap, 2 => function that produces tab content, 3 => total number objects OR array(total, objects per page), 4 => add_query_args
	$wp_upload_tabs['upload'] = array(__('Upload'), 'upload_files', 'wp_upload_tab_upload', 0);
	if ( $all_atts && $post_atts = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_type = 'attachment' AND post_parent = '$post_id'") )
		$wp_upload_tabs['browse'] = array(__('Browse'), 'upload_files', "wp_upload_tab_browse", $action ? 0 : $post_atts);
	if ( current_user_can('import')
		if ( $post_atts < $all_atts )
			$wp_upload_tabs['browse-all'] = array(__('Browse All'), 'upload_files', 'wp_upload_tab_browse', $action ? 0 : $all_atts);
} else
	$wp_upload_tabs['browse-all'] = array(__('Browse All'), 'upload_files', 'wp_upload_tab_browse', $action ? 0 : $all_atts);

I added if ( current_user_can(‘import’) ) to make it an Administrator only thing.

Ref: Capability vs. Role Table

You can make your own images and change the .css sheets.

It’s not an easy thing to do especially if you don’t know what you are doing (like myself) but it can be done.

I used this Roles and Capabilities for reference.

To remove Comments in moderation (1) for all users except Administrator:

Open: wp-admin/index.php

Find: `<?php if ( $numcomments ) : ?>
<p><?php echo sprintf(__(‘Comments in moderation (%s) »’), number_format_i18n($numcomments) ); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>`

Change To: `<?php if ( current_user_can(‘import’) ) { ?> <?php if ( $numcomments ) : ?>
<p><?php echo sprintf(__(‘Comments in moderation (%s)’), number_format_i18n($numcomments) ); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?><?php } ?>`

Save & Close

I added: <?php if ( current_user_can(‘import’) ) { ?> at the beginning and <?php } ?> at the end.

To show only Dashboard | Write | Profile for everybody except Administrator:

Open: wp-admin/menu.php

Find: `if (strpos($_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’], ‘edit-pages.php’) !== false)
$menu[5] = array(__(‘Write’), ‘edit_pages’, ‘page-new.php’);
else
$menu[5] = array(__(‘Write’), ‘edit_posts’, ‘post-new.php’);
if (strpos($_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’], ‘page-new.php’) !== false)
$menu[10] = array(__(‘Manage’), ‘edit_pages’, ‘edit-pages.php’);
else
$menu[10] = array(__(‘Manage’), ‘edit_posts’, ‘edit.php’);

$menu[15] = array(__(‘Comments’), ‘edit_posts’, ‘edit-comments.php’);`

Change To: `if (strpos($_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’], ‘edit-pages.php’) !== false)
$menu[5] = array(__(‘Write’), ‘edit_pages’, ‘page-new.php’);
else
$menu[5] = array(__(‘Write’), ‘edit_posts’, ‘post-new.php’);
if ( current_user_can(‘import’) )
if (strpos($_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’], ‘page-new.php’) !== false)
$menu[10] = array(__(‘Manage’), ‘edit_pages’, ‘edit-pages.php’);
else
$menu[10] = array(__(‘Manage’), ‘edit_posts’, ‘edit.php’);
if ( current_user_can(‘import’) )
$menu[15] = array(__(‘Comments’), ‘edit_posts’, ‘edit-comments.php’);`

Save & Close

I added: if ( current_user_can(‘import’) ) before and after the Manage commands.

You can change ‘import’ to something lower if you want someone lower than an Administator to be able to view.

Looks like we are on our own.
