 * I need to be able to upload SVGZ files, which are compressed SVG files; however,
   I cannot get WordPress to allow it. From what I have read the problem is that
   both SVG and SVGZ use the same mime type image/svg+xml. Is there a way to differentiate
   between the two mime types so that I can have both?

 * Yes, it’s simple.
 * You add the following value to the “Add Values” in the plugin’s setting menu.
 *     ```
       svgz	= image/svg+xml
       svg	= image/svg+xml
       ```
