Unable to upload a file

    Hello, Thom !

    I just downloaded your plugin and I find it excellent. I only wanted to show the contents of a folder but I saw that there was also the possibility to send files. So I tried this feature but even with small files, the upload does not work. Do you know why?
    If you want to see, you can create an account on my site and go to the following address:

    https://justforyourears.com/mes-fichiers/ (english version)
    https://en.justforyourears.com/files/ (English Version)

    The problems are different on the two pages.

    I also have a request: is it possible to add a way to send very large files exceeding the php upload_max_filesize? I saw that other plugins did.

    It could be great for my use. I am engineer and I’d like my clients to send me large files (Session Pro Tools for example) and then I can send them a mixed .wav file.

    Thank you in advance for your help.

    I just try the table mode and i’m unable to rename or delete a file…

    I have a similar problem, can’t upload files.

    I have these two shortcodes in a page:

    [fileaway]
    [fileup makedir=”true”]

    Whenever I select the base folder from the dropdown box, it erases all options and although I can select which file to upload, I get an error on not having selected a destination folder.

    Any clues??

    Thanks

    The two of you are talking about separate issues, both of which are probably configuration issues. If you want tobsave time, send me admin access to [email protected] and I’ll get you sorted out.

    Spudstyle,

    The issue with your File Uploads is fixed. It was because your WordPress URL and your Site URL were different. You had:

    WP: https://www.domain.com
    Site: https://domain.com

    I changed it to:

    WP: https://www.domain.com
    Site: https://www.domain.com

    and the uploads work fine now. File Away checks to see if the urls match to determine if it needs to adjust for upload directory on certain setups (e.g., domain of site is different than install directory). The way you had the URLs, it was giving File Away a false positive.

    As for large uploads, you have to change the settings in your php.ini. The instructions for this are in the tutorials, on the shortcode generator in the File Up max size setting’s info icon.

    Anaglypher,

    For the record, you should put the makedir="true" setting in whichever shortcode is on top of the other, or in both. Otherwise, when the user loads the page the first time, the directory won’t exist for the topmost shortcode to find.

    Anaglypher’s issue was a mixed SSL environment. As explained in the docs, if you have SSL on the admin, SSL has to be activated on the page where your File Away shortcodes are posted as well.

    Thank you very much Thomstark !

    my site is very slow since this change, this is normal?

    Concerning upload large files, I do not have access to php.ini and even with a .htaccess file, the size is limited to 64MB. That’s why some plugins cut files for sending. I know WordPress File Upload Pro does.
    It’s just a suggestion ^^

    Your site is loading instantly for me, just as fast as it was before the change. Adding www. to your site url will not slow your site down.

    If you don’t have access to php.ini, maybe you should not be uploading large files to the server. ?? That is to say, if it’s not your account, then you should be getting permission from somebody, right? If it is your account, then there’s no reason you shouldn’t have access to a php.ini file.

    The site works great now… Strange !

    It’s my account but it’s a OVH restriction ??
    I will use the WP file upload pro for the upload.

    just a little question in passing: why you have not done the table in AJAX? After you rename or delete a file, you must reload the page to see the changes, it is not very practical I think. Another suggestion ^^

    in any case, thank you again for this plugin!

    Superb support Thom,

    File Away is working fine now…many thanks!
