Adding MIME Types

    While the plugin works great for me, it is missing a couple of MIME types that I need. Namely those for Microsoft update and patch files.

    .msp –> application/octet-stream
    .msu –> application/octet-stream

    I figured it would be as simple as adding these to the mime-types.txt file, but the strings you are using are a bit more complex than what I was expecting. Could you assist in adding these? Thanks!

    I’ve just added .msp and .msu to the list, update your plugin to release 0.2.1 and you’ll be ok.

    If you want to add other extensions you can to it with a simple procedure.
    0. open directory wp-content/plugins/wp-extra-file-types
    1. open file get-mime.php with a text editor
    2. look for a variable called $extra (it’s declared as an array)
    3. add to it you extensions: the “key” is the extension, the “value” is an array containing the mime-type, the description of the file and false
    4. save the file
    5. execute from command line php get-mime.php (your user must have write permissions on file mime-list.txt)
