How to enable editor role to upload galleries?

  • In editor role there is no option for creating galleries, albums or anything.
    There’s only FEATURES & FAQ available.
    Is there a way to grant permission for editor role to create galleries and albums?

    In WordPress, by default (if you have not modified user roles and permissions), the Editor has the right to create gallery (custom post) and albums (categories).

    I haven’t modified any user roles and permissions.
    In case that some plugin is causing the issue, I have disabled every single one except Simply Gallery and still the problem is there.

    Also I have tested this plugin on another site with editor role and there everything is working fine.
    Do you have any hint maybe what could be causing the issue only for this site? :/

    Btw the way this plugin looks when writing new post in gutenberg is different on these 2 websites.

    In this one that I have issue with, in the top bar it has this Pencil/Eye icon.
    When I click on pencil icon/or big blue button “Change Gallery Settings” then it swiches to gallery settings from right sidebar to the middle of the post editor. And when I click on the Eye icon then it switches to the preview mode inside post editor and gallery settings switches from post editor back to the right sidebar.
    I explained it better in these 2 pictures
    Gallery Settings
    Gallery Preview

    And on the other website in edit post mode it looks different.
    I mean it doesn’t have this icon/pencil button at the top to toggle between modes but only this two joined buttons Add media/Reload gallery, and all settings are at the sidebar…

    Why is that 2 different looks in 2 different websites?
    Maybe I have changed something on the first one that I don’t remember, but I went through all options and couldn’t see how to change this.

    Any idea?

    Unfortunately, I don’t have answers to your questions because there can be a huge number of reasons. WordPress is a constructor in which the more elements (plugins, themes), the less stable the site. There is definitely something changed on your site in the admin panel and this is causing problems (even the theme can “break” everything).
