• Please check is there are no JS errors in the javascript console. Please check e.g. in Chrome JS console. Usually when we investigate such things we find out that some other plugin or theme are broken, and wpDataTables JS cannot execute.
• Try to turn off option Include bootstrap on front-end in main settings of plugin.
• Please try switching the theme to a different one and see if it helps.
• Feel free to open a support ticket, providing us with the URL of the page so we could tell why does it happen.

By default, WordPress Media Library (used for attachments) allows file uploads only for users who have the upload_files capability. So, everyone who doesn’t have this capability (e.g. a subscriber) will receive an error on trying to upload a file.

To add this capability to subscribers you can e.g. use the User Role Editor plugin. Just enable the upload_files capability for the users which need it and it will work.

Other option is to add this capability dynamically via a hook. To do this you can add e.g. this code to your theme’s functions.php:

            function give_permissions( $allcaps, $cap, $args ) {
                $allcaps['upload_files'] = true;
                return $allcaps;
            }
            add_filter( 'user_has_cap', 'give_permissions', 0, 3 );     

Basically, it enables the upload_files capability to everyone – but you can extend this logic to allow it only for certain users at certain moments.

By default WordPress does not allow this. Reason is: logged out user has no ID (id is 0), and no permissions/capabilities enabled for him.

A solution would be to create an actual user that will be used as a single user for all logged-out users, and copy his ID (e.g. id = 100).

Then you can add a simple hook to identify logged out users as User with ID 100. To do this you can use a hook like this:

    function set_loggedout_id( $user_id ){
       if( empty( $user_id ) ){
          $user_id = 100;
       }
       return $user_id;
    }
            
    add_filter( 'determine_current_user', 'set_loggedout_id', 999, 1 );

Basically, it “tells” WordPress to replace the empty ID of a logged out user with a value of 100.
Then you can allow uploading for this user.

For showing and hiding column filters is responsible “Advanced column filters” option on the table settings page.
You can also hide each column filter in column settings by unchecking the “Add a filter for this column” button in Filtering tab for desired column.
By checking or unchecking this settings check box and saving, table will show or hide column filters.
