Administrators can prevent available user roles from uploading files within the community.

User roles are correspondent to enabled features. Editor, Author, Contributor and Subscriber are base roles provided by WordPress. There is also the Administrator role, but due to its nature it cannot be limited.

Administrators can disallow file upload for any role available in this part of the configuration, even if the role originates from a separate plugin.
