Restrict Media Library Access Plugin

Restricts access for Authors and Contributors so they can only see their own Media Library uploads.

This plugin restricts access for Authors and Contributors so they can only see their own Media Library uploads.

This has two main uses: Make it easier for Authors to locate their own uploads when Media Libraries grow very big and prevent Authors from using or downloading media that belongs to other users.

Admins and Editors will still be able to see everyone’s uploads.

  2. Search for ‘Restrict Media Library Access’
