 * Good morning Evan, .obj files are restricted by default, because they may contain
   executable code. However, if you still want to allow them, there is a way:
 * 1. Put the following code at the end of functions.php file of your theme:
 *     ```
       global $wfu_extension_blacklist;
       if ( isset($wfu_extension_blacklist["obj"]) ) unset($wfu_extension_blacklist["obj"]);
       ```
   
 * 2. Add obj to Allowed File Extensions in the shortcode like this: *.obj

 * Thank you! I am planning on upgrading to the professional version. Will I be 
   able to do the same for other 3D file types? 3ds, blend, dae, fbx, max, etc.
 * Thanks!

 * I have purchased the pro version. After pasting the code above in the functions.
   php file I was allowed to upload a .obj file. I then ran a test uploading multiple
   files (After installing the pro version) and it was successful.
 * However, now whenever I try to upload a .jpg it is unsuccessful? Any ideas?
 * Thanks!

 * Hi Evan, please note that with Pro version you do not need to have the above 
   code inside functions.php anymore. There is a Hooks section in plugin’s area 
   in Dashboard for adding custom scripts. Nevertheless, both ways will work.
 * Regarding the .jpg errors, is this random? what are the errors?

 * Thanks Nickolas! I ended up resolving the .jpg error.
 * I am onto trying to sync the file uploads to our dropbox account. Is there any
   documentation how to set this up? I have authorized the API on our dropbox account
   and generated the code to paste into the dropbox settings section of the plugin
   but whenever I hit the “finish” button nothing happens. I have tried on a few
   different browsers, but no luck. Can you please point me in the right direction
   to resolve the issue?
 * Thanks,
    Evan

 * What is your PHP version? The new Dropbox API requires PHP version 5.6 or higher.
