Hi,

i think you have to change the settings in the .htaccess file of your installation, too:

# php 5, apache 1 and 2
<IfModule mod_php5.c>
    # default memory limit to 64Mb
    php_value memory_limit 64M
    # to make sure register global is off
    php_value register_globals 0
    # max post size to 8Mb
    php_value post_max_size 8388608
    # upload size limit to 5Mb    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    php_value upload_max_filesize 5242880                            <--# Try to change this entry
    # hide errors, enable only if debug enabled
    php_value display_errors 0
</IfModule>

I think the file plugin needs a admin configuration panel to set allowed file types, quota per user and for images the maximum size and a resize on upload.

Hi guys,

I'm having the same issue. I want DJ's to be able to upload mixes to my website, so it must allow anywhere up to a 150mb upload. Where is the php.ini file? I'm using 1.6.1, and I have the update file plugin installed. I'm slightly new to this, but can do the work if pointed in the correct direction. My htaccess file has the following in it :

<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
    # ugly ugly hack to detect missing mod_rewrite
    # RedirectMatch must be to an absolute destination, so forces 500 error...
    RedirectMatch 302 .* index.php
</IfModule>


# php 4, apache 1.x
<IfModule mod_php4.c>
    RedirectMatch 302 .* index.php
</IfModule>

# php 4, apache 2
<IfModule sapi_apache2.c>
    RedirectMatch 302 .* index.php
</IfModule>


<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine on

# If Elgg is in a subdirectory on your site, you might need to add a RewriteBase line
# containing the path from your site root to elgg's root. e.g. If your site is

# If you're not running Elgg in a subdirectory on your site, but still getting lots
