• Hey there,

    When I try to upload a quicktime video to one of my pages, it comes up with this:
    file is too big. Your php.ini upload_max_filesize is 20M.

    So how do I change the max filesize?

    Thanks

  • If you have your own dedicated server or VPS, then you can change your php.ini file. You need to change two values:

    upload_max_filesize
    post_max_size

    If you are on a shared host, then you need to find out from your host if they allow you to change these, and if so, how to do it. For example, I know Bluehost does allow you to change them on their shared accounts…directions are on their website:

    http://helpdesk.bluehost.com/kb/index.php?x=&mod_id=2&id=124

    Other host will differ, so you really need to ask your host.

    An alternative is to FTP your video to your site.

    I’ve been trying to FTP them to my site, but its not showing up in the media library?

    No, it won’t if you don’t upload through wordpress because there isn’t an entry in the database with the location of the video…there may be a way to fix that, but I don’t know off-hand what it is. You should still be able to link to the video using the address to the file.
