 * Hi everyone, I am in the process of building a new site
    (if youre courious heres
   the link: [http://www.RateItForMe.com](http://www.RateItForMe.com))
 * I was wondering if someone can help me remove some of the blocks under the Dashboard(
   for registered and logged in users)
 * As of now, the default for registered users is AUTHOR and with the CAPABILITIES
   plugin I set the permissions for author as follows:
 * Delete Published Posts
    Read Edit Published Posts Upload Files Publish Posts
 * And basically what I am looking for is registered users to be able to post images,
   and rank/rate other posts and thats it!
 * How do I go about that?
 * I am trying to remove the extra stuff under the dashboard (Which I also renamed
   the link to POSTINGS) and want the dashboard to be a place to allow logged in
   visitors to post images. I dont want them to hear about WordPress Updates and
   ETC….
 * Is there any plugin that modifies the dashboard? Or is there another method?
 * thanks in advance,
    DP

 * Also just a note to others, in order to have registered users post you have to
   set the default to Contributor under General settings.
 * then you can install Capability Manager plugin and give READ, UPLOAD FILES, EDIT
   POSTS, EDIT PUBLISHED POSTS, PUBLISH POST permission or set according to your
   needs!
