function restrict_dashboard_access() {
if (is_user_logged_in()) {
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$user_roles = $current_user->roles;
if (!in_array('administrator', $user_roles)) {
wp_redirect(home_url());
exit;
}
}
}
add_action('admin_init', 'restrict_dashboard_access');

 

This was stopping the upload feature.

Non admin members are unable to upload attachments using the paid addon. This error shows when trying to add files But works fine for admin.
