Uploading video larger than 8MB

  • Hi- I want to upload full length video to a seperate page from mt main pages. It is definately bigger that the 8MB the uploader allows. I am uploading the video to my server (smartenvironmentalist.com). How do I get it from the back door on my server to somewhere where someone else can download the video????

  • The easiest solution I can think of is just use your ftp client to place it in any directory you need to. Even if you need to create a directory for those larger videos. For example, you could just upload it to smartenvironmentalist.com/videos and then use that path plus the file name when you embed it in your page.

    If you have access to php.ini, try adjusting the following values as necessary:

    upload_max_filesize = 64M ;
post_max_size = 64M ;

    If you don’t have access to php.ini, add the following to your .htaccess file (adjust as necessary):

    php_value upload_max_filesize = 64M
php_value post_max_size = 64M

    I’m having the same issue. When I looked at the php.ini, I didn’t see the variables you listed. I added the variables and values to to the the .htaccess file and that didn’t do anything. WP still wouldn’t upload a 10 MB file.
