Attachments (size and folder capacity)
« on: January 31, 2015, 10:49:11 AM »
Hi all.

Sorry about the recent error message when trying to upload attachments. The folder on the server was set to 4Gb and we have now exceeded that.
When I set that up, storage was quite expensive. It is still expensive but in general you can get 100x what you could for the money.

I've reset the allowance to 400Gb; that should keep us going for another few years. (There are 5,600 attachments on the server at present...)

I haven't changed the other settings:

  • Max size for any attachment = 1Mb
  • Max attachments per post = 5
  • Max total size per post = 4Mb

Please use a picture resizer to get your photos down to <1Mb, or host externally and use the [img] function. That's the one that looks like a tiny Mona Lisa on the toolbar.
