disble edit media for non-admin

azizul karim aec

Here’s some code that you can add in theme’s functions.php file or any custom plugin you might be using, which will disable the user’s ability to edit images(except for administrators).

add_filter('wp_image_editors','remove_edit_image_functionality');
function remove_edit_image_functionality($methods){
    if(current_user_can('activate_plugins')){
        return $methods;
    }
    else{
        return array();
    }
}
