Hi,

I have a problem with uploading files... I have successfully uploaded a .docx file and attached it to an article no problems. However I have been trying to upload a .pdf file and i keep getting the error message 'There was an error uploading the file, please try again'. I Set upload folder to CHMOD 777 and tried renaming the pdf file but neither worked. The file is just over 2mb does that make any difference?

Please help!?

Cheers

I have fixed the problem. If there are any other n00bs like me who have this problem put the following in your php.ini file...

upload_max_filesize = 10M;
post_max_size = 20M;

gives you max upload of 10mb a file.
