Limit on uploaded file size??

I am guessing hidden somewhere there is a filter to limit uploaded file size from groups? I am trying to upload ebooks and smaller files are no problem but, anything larger 3mb does no upload? Looks like it is, acts like it is but never finishes..   Could someone point a newbie to the correct direction to change/fix this?/

 

TIA

  • What kind of file are you uploading? Check with your host if there's a place where you can set the upload max files

  • Thanks for the reply, I am uploading PDF's.  smaller ones I have no problem with!?!  I looked at the host settings and there are no restrictions on uploads..  So I am about clueless at this point!!?!

  • Increase file limit on .htaccess to 10 mb and try again.
