    .hud {

<p>Works fine :<br>

<p>You can disable the capacity to upload, remove, or create subfolders for assets to whomever you wish through the users control panel.</p>

<p>You could potentially solve this problem by limiting the users control to allow them only to upload and not change folders or delete. (see image below)</p>

No those permissions are not precise enough in my case. I just want to disable name and title fields.

You can disable the capacity to upload, remove, or create subfolders for assets to whomever you wish through the users control panel.

You could potentially solve this problem by limiting the users control to allow them only to upload and not change folders or delete. (see image below)
