Hi,

I love the component. I've got it working, thanks to the great advice posted in this forum. Reading the posts saved me hours of frustration.

However, I'm not getting the files in the /components/com_chronocontact/upload/ folder. I get them via email, but they aren't showing up in the upload folder.

What am I doing wrong?

Never mind the post. I discovered the files were in the upload folder. It's a problem of filezilla not refreshing the directory. I suspected such, so I checked with joomlaXplorer and they were there.

Great!! Glad all is fine now!🙂

Best regards,

Max

I also discovered that files over 2mb won't go up, due to a restriction by my host. They advised me to put a php.ini file with the following text in the same directory from which the script is running.
upload_max_filesize = 5M
post_max_size = 5M

My question now is: into which folder do I put the php.ini file? I don't want to make this universal for my entire site...just for my form. Any suggestions? I already tried putting it into "/public_html/components/com_chronocontact/" but it doesn't help.

It turns out I had to edit my .htaccess file in my root directory and then edit my php.ini file.

While I'm not too excited about having this apply universally to my site, I'm in a hurry and don't have time to try to adjust it just for chronoforms.

I hope someone else finds this post helpful. The best thing to do to overcome the 2mb limit many hosts place on your site is to contact tech support of your host and get them to help you.

Hi ordinary,

I think there is no way but to put it at the site root to get it working and so will affect the whole site!!

Cheers
