attachments

[vbcustomized]

Hello all,

I have a small problem I was hoping you could help me out with. My current configuration on my server only allows 2mb php upload file size limit and I have some files that are much larger that i need to post as attachments so non reg'd users can not download them. If I upload directly via ftp how can I then link to them in an attachment? Sorta like hotlinking from my own site.

Thanks in advance.

Just manually add them to your database (and filesystem if you keep attachements on disk).

Just upload a php.ini into your forum root with this in it

PHP Code:

memory_limit = 128M
post_max_size = 101M
upload_max_filesize = 100M

max_execution_time = 120 


That should change limit to 100meg

This will not work on shared hosting, and where you do not have root access.

Im on a shared hosting.. no root access... and it works 100% for me.. it can be done via .htaccess file as well... spose each hosting package differant.. but worth a try
