Allow Upload .vcf in WordPress 5.0.3

(@paulcityhopper)

How can I allow to upload .vcf?
I Already tried something like…

function be_enable_vcard_upload( $mime_types ){
	$mime_types['vcf'] = 'text/x-vcard';
	return $mime_types;
}
add_filter('upload_mimes', 'be_enable_vcard_upload' );

But this doesnet work.

I am having the same issue, that plugin does not appear to work on the latest version of WordPress, nor does modifying the functions.php file with the standard code for this you can find throughout the net.

Also having the same issue on an install version 4.9.9

I had the same issue. I was able to resolve it by installing the “Upload File Type Settings” plug-in (https://wordpress.org/plugins/upload-file-type-settings-plugin/) and then entering this, vcf : text/x-vcard, into the Custom Mime Type field.

so this works
```
function _thz_enable_vcard_upload( $mime_types ){
  	$mime_types['vcf'] = 'text/vcard';
	$mime_types['vcard'] = 'text/vcard';
  	return $mime_types;
}
add_filter('upload_mimes', '_thz_enable_vcard_upload' );
```

I had to put the x- in to get it to work in v5.2.2
This worked for me.
```
function jberg_enable_vcard_upload( $mime_types=array() ){
  	$mime_types['vcf'] = 'text/x-vcard';
	$mime_types['vcard'] = 'text/x-vcard';
  	return $mime_types;
}
add_filter('upload_mimes', 'jberg_enable_vcard_upload' );
```
