Thank you Scott and bdbrown.

Well, Bluehost sucks, changing hosts now.

I can confirm this too, WP version 4.0

I solved my issue with this. I had to disable the plugin and write my own code.. so i’m not sure this is an appropriate solution for users of this plugin, but nevertheless, i’d thought i’ll post it in case it will be of help to somebody someday.

I took my code from:
codex.www.ads-software.com/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/admin_init#Example:_Access_Control_with_redirect

And added “async-upload.php” to the exclusion. This is my code:

function restrict_admin_with_redirect() {
	if ( ! current_user_can( 'manage_options' ) && $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] != '/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php' && $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] != '/wp-admin/async-upload.php' ) {
		wp_redirect( site_url() ); exit;
	}
}
add_action( 'admin_init', 'restrict_admin_with_redirect' );

Hi,

Thanks for the plugin.

I have the exact same issue with the Author role (Or any non-admin for that matter). I have a front-end post management and image upload, and non-admins cannot upload images. (async-upload.php is getting blocked, thus not allowing to upload images.) I wish there was an option to manually allow certain scrips to run from the front-end. I’m sure many others have the same problem.

Thank you

Thanks! I had the exact same problem. Editing core plugin files is not pretty but no choice until an official fix is out.. Thanks again.

That’ll be a great feature. Joining the request.

Same issue here. can this plugin even be used in a non-MU install?

I rely heavily on WP and I’m really at my max frustration level with this problem. I own multiple sites all of which use WP and this has been a problem for YEARS

Can you guys at least acknowledge its a problem and tell us what the deal is instead of just ignoring all the complaints?

This isn’t a small glitch, the freakin return key doesn’t work. That’s a big deal…

Couldn’t agree more.. waiting for a solution as well.
