If you have contributors to your blog, you probably got annoyed to see that they can’t upload files and images while writing guest posts for you. Today’s recipe will solve the problem, allowing contributors to upload files to your blog.
Nothng hard with this code: The only thing you have to do is to paste it in your functions.php file:
if ( current_user_can('contributor') && !current_user_can('upload_files') )
add_action('admin_init', 'allow_contributor_uploads');
function allow_contributor_uploads() {
$contributor = get_role('contributor');
$contributor->add_cap('upload_files');
}

@Nando Kindly download and activate Advance permalink to fix the error
I am having the same problem Nando had. I cannot access plugins to download Advance permalink. I get the following error any time I try to click any link on the dashboard so even if I install via ftp I still wouldn’t be able to activate it:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENDIF in /home/dmacc/legacyboom.org/wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/functions.php on line 603
Please help! Thank you!
