  I would like contributors to be able to upload media. Can this be done.. Other than that I want all as is… I find it odd that contributors cannot. It is important that they cannot edit other users posts OR publish posts so I cannot upgrade them to authors.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  actually even better would be if an author was not allowed to publish… set that only editors can publish. That would be absolute best.

  Now they have to email me media and I ad it. Time consuming.

  Sure. You can use this https://en.forums.wordpress.com/forum/ideas#postform to create a thread in the Ideas Forum but don’t hold your breath.
