I don't have time or JavaScript skill to implement this currently, but here are some pointers if anyone else wants to take a crack at it.

Places to modify

Sidebar link for podcast search:

audiobookshelf/client/components/app/SideRail.vue

Line 90 in 5b22d74

    
           <nuxt-link v-if="isPodcastLibrary && userIsAdminOrUp" :to="`/library/${currentLibraryId}/podcast/search`" class="w-full h-20 flex flex-col items-center justify-center text-white text-opacity-80 border-b border-primary border-opacity-70 hover:bg-primary cursor-pointer relative" :class="isPodcastSearchPage ? 'bg-primary bg-opacity-80' : 'bg-bg bg-opacity-60'">

Sidebar link for podcast download:

audiobookshelf/client/components/app/SideRail.vue

Line 106 in 5b22d74

    
           <nuxt-link v-if="isPodcastLibrary && userIsAdminOrUp" :to="`/library/${currentLibraryId}/podcast/download-queue`" class="w-full h-20 flex flex-col items-center justify-center text-white text-opacity-80 border-b border-primary border-opacity-70 hover:bg-primary cursor-pointer relative" :class="isPodcastDownloadQueuePage ? 'bg-primary bg-opacity-80' : 'bg-bg bg-opacity-60'">

Definition of auth function:

audiobookshelf/client/components/app/SideRail.vue

Lines 157 to 159 in 5b22d74

    
               userIsAdminOrUp() { 
        
                 return this.$store.getters['user/getIsAdminOrUp'] 
        
               },

Backing privilege checks:

audiobookshelf/client/store/user.js

Line 25 in 5b22d74

getIsAdminOrUp: (state) => state.user && (state.user.type === 'admin' || state.user.type === 'root'),

Existing permission checks

Reference for how current privilege checks are performed:

Checking for delete/download privs in addition to admin:

audiobookshelf/client/components/tables/LibraryFilesTable.vue

Line 21 in 5b22d74

<th v-if="userCanDelete || userCanDownload || (userIsAdmin && audioFiles.length && !inModal)" class="text-center w-16"></th>

Definition of those functions:

audiobookshelf/client/components/tables/LibraryFilesTable.vue

Lines 59 to 67 in 5b22d74

    
               userCanDownload() { 
        
                 return this.$store.getters['user/getUserCanDownload'] 
        
               }, 
        
               userCanDelete() { 
        
                 return this.$store.getters['user/getUserCanDelete'] 
        
               }, 
        
               userIsAdmin() { 
        
                 return this.$store.getters['user/getIsAdminOrUp'] 
        
               },

Backing privilege checks:

audiobookshelf/client/store/user.js

Lines 48 to 53 in 5b22d74

    
           getUserCanDelete: (state) => { 
        
             return !!state.user?.permissions?.delete 
        
           }, 
        
           getUserCanDownload: (state) => { 
        
             return !!state.user?.permissions?.download 
        
           },
