does that answer my question?

No, that doesn't answer your question. I don't know the answer and someone will be along to answer if they do. I just moved the post to a better forum for organization.

Hi Kevster,

 

PHP itself has a 2 meg limit by default. You can change this default in your .htaccess file. Just put in your .htaccess file in your public_html directory (or the top directory of your forum software) the following line:

>php_value upload_max_filesize 10M

 

That would change the max file size allowed to 10 megs. Change the 10M if you decide you want a different file size allowed.

No problem. That's what we as Mods are supposed to do.

Just in case you need to know more stuff about the PHP configuration in your server, you can create a PHP file with the following contents:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

 

When you access that file, it will give you all the info about how PHP is configured

I've installed wordpress and came across the same error. i put in an .htaccess file in my upload directory, saying php_value upload_max_filesize 60m.

When I try to upload though I still get a message saying that the upload is limited to 8mb. Any possible reason for that?

I would submit a ticket with the help desk and ask them to look into it.
