HI

I have setup a product and want to use Files functionality. However I see that there is a restriction of 2M. My download file is about 20M. Is there an option to increase the upload file size or somehow ftp the file to the right location.

Thanks

Patrick

Hi,

You can change the upload limit in the php.ini file of your web server. That's a limitation of your server, not of HikaShop.

Otherwise, you can upload the files in the folder media/com_hikashop/upload/safe and enter the name of the file instead of uploading the file when you add the file to the product thanks to the "Set file mode" option.
