    Hello!

    Currently the plugin is restricted to only allow users who are authorized to upload files make this kind of change. If you would like to have a Subscriber role be able to do this on your site, you can add that capability to the Subscriber user role and this should fix that issue.

    Here is an example code:

    <?php
function add_theme_caps() {
    // gets the subscriber role
    $role = get_role( 'subscriber' );

    // would allow the subscriber role to upload photos for the current theme
    $role->add_cap( 'upload_files' );
}
add_action( 'admin_init', 'add_theme_caps');
?>

    This would also give the user access to the Media and Media -> Add New options in the WP admin area so you’ll want to take action to hide this from those users so they cannot upload random images to your site.

    Here is how the codex explains it:

    Hope this helps.

    Thank You for trying the plugin.
