Editions Members Safe SVG
Pros Visual role and capability editor; Several roles per user and role cloning; Content restriction and private site mode Sanitises SVG uploads before they are stored; Shows SVG previews in the media library; Choose which user roles can upload SVG files
Cons Role changes apply to every user who holds the role; Payments and memberships are not handled by this plugin; Add-on integrations depend on the other plugin being active SVG optimiser is off by default and needs a code filter; Settings are limited to the upload role choice; Sanitising rules decide what markup survives, so check designs after upload
