Re: [pmm-cms-developers] PHP Upload Fix

[Bill H. <bil...@gm...>]

Hi folks -

That flag is already in a .htaccess file for the entire site, set to
10MB. Has been for quite some time. Frankly, I'm not sure why it
wouldn't work. The last time I tested, I think I was able to upload a
3MB file, and the default without that .htacess flag is 2MB, so it
must be working indeed.

There is also an ini_set() function in the script, but it doesn't
always work, depending on how php is configured on the server. In the
case of northcountrypblicradio.org, the server is set to not accept
changes to upload_max_filesize from scripts.

Dale - Are you sure that uploader doesn't work? If it was an issue of
filesize, you'd not be able to add stories over 2MB, which I think
hasn't been a problem. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks,
Bill
