• Hi

    This is a great plugin and really helpful as it is. I would like to edit the error messages – and specifically the ‘fu-disallowed-mime-type’ error because as it stands it can be a little confusing. Any chance you can add in a hook so the error messages can be edited?

    I am using the uploader to upload several files from one page and have restricted filetypes to jpegs only. I think some edits can be made to the error message that would work for everyone. At the moment if a user tries to upload a disallowed filetype the message is “This kind of file is not allowed. Please, try again selecting other file.:
    filename.extension

    I think a better wording would be: “The following files have not been uploaded because they do not match the permitted filetype(s):
    list of files that failed to upload

    I say this because with the message at the moment it is not terribly clear whether ALL the files have failed to upload, or just the ones with the wrong filetype.

    In addition, a current slight bug is that if an error occurs because of filetype and the user immediately uploads again with corrected files, then the Success message appears replacing the message “This kind of file is not allowed.”, but the other message of “Please, try again selecting other file.:
    filename.extension” is still there.

    Thanks for your help. Really useful plugin!
