How can I increase the file size limitation on attachments? I've already increased the upload limits in php.ini but anything more than a couple megabytes is still being rejected. Is there a framework related config I need to edit? Thanks in advance.

Hi @N3V3N, There's nothing at app or framework level that should limit upload size. Have you updated both post_max_size and upload_max_filesize variables in the php.ini file?

If so it could possibly be something at web-server level. Are you using Nginx, Apache or something else?

I figured it out, thank you for pointing me in the right direction Dan. I also appreciate all your hard work on developing this fantastic documentation solution.

For posterity, I edited /etc/nginx/nginx.conf and added the following line:
client_max_body_size 100m
After which I was able to successfully upload the files.

@N3V3N Awesome, I'm glad you found the fix.

I'll keep this issue open for now to remind me to add a page to the docs with details of changing attachment size limits.
