FAP SUPPORT - Upload Problems
-----------------------------------
hello, I copied extracts from the original post over at MG.com

To enable users to upload files higher than 2MB I have to have nuffload enabled. Is my assumption correct that the standard resize function uploads the picture and then resizes it whereas nuffload resizes (somehow) it before or while uploading it? I do not get it otherwise...( :wacko_03:  :blink_01: ) 
I do not mind this but am (positively) surprised that I can upload more than the upload_max_filesize of 2MB (according to phpinfo) with nuffload.
The maximum filesize set in the ACP is about 5MB as there are many users that have high resolution cameras but do not know how to resize an image.

To cut to the chase, my questions from my previous post I put in red. :)

thanks very much

Re: Upload Problems
-----------------------------------
hope you have had a nice christmas everyone.

{text edited out, refers to the original post of the author having upload problems}, I can upload pics of about 2mb and then get

[quote]No pictures selected for upload or unknow error[/quote]

with nuffload I can upload a pic higher than 2mb. {text edited out - was solved in the meantime}

----

[color=red]Is there a code that I can include that gives me the upload limit from the server without having to go to the host so I know not to set it higher than that in the acp config?

This is what was added by another mod (Contact Form by marcus.smith) I have installed 
[code](@phpversion() >= '4.0.0') ? ini_get('upload_max_filesize')  get_cfg_var('upload_max_filesize')[/code]
looking at the phpinfo I have this 
upload_max_filesize	2M 

but since nuffload has no problem with the files larger than 2MB is there another limit I need to look for?[/color]

p.s. i checked the chmod, they are set as per install


if there is anything that does not make sense please shout.

grateful for your help[/quote]
