Hi, I have a couple of questions: 1.Where do I set the max upload size limit for the filemanagmt plugin? 2. There is the possibility to upload via FTP and then being able to see it in the downloads section without using the 'create new file' option?

The max upload size is a webserver setting - specifically a php.ini setting. The default for "upload_max_filesize" is 2MB. You may also need to change the "max_execution_time" from the default of 30 sec as it may take longer to upload larger files - depends on your link speeds. There is currently no support for FTP or direct importing of files. Blaine

Hi Blaine, I had an idea... Imagine that I have a 50MB file that needs to be in the download section: I create and upload a 10kb .zip file called test.zip using the filemagt option, then, I go to the "/public_html/filemgmt_data/files" directory, I remove the file and I upload the file that I want with the same file name, test.zip but the real one I will try but I'm sure that it will work..

Yes that will work and is how you would currently have to update the file - by replacing it.

Alternatively, you may want to include a file listing with your plugin and have it load the file from a remote server. I have documented how to do that here
