I have tried as a user and admin. Shouldn't i be able to upload the file types listed in functions.php? </p> http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/2544#post-25898 Mon, 16 Apr 2007 16:48:11 +0000 ryanozawa 25898@http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/ <p>suleiman, does your hack of the plugin solve the 'admin' versus 'user' view problem FifthE1ement mentions? Is it still per-user or is one set of allowed file-types universal? Anyone hacking something more WPMU specific? </p> http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/2544#post-25400 Sun, 08 Apr 2007 17:20:10 +0000 drmike 25400@http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/ <p>I'd just remove that portion of the code that gives them the option and hard code in the allowable file types. </p> http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/2544#post-25387 Sun, 08 Apr 2007 10:53:00 +0000 FifthE1ement 25387@http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/ <p>Anyone? </p> http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/2544#post-23945 Tue, 20 Mar 2007 08:28:01 +0000 FifthE1ement 23945@http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/ <p>I think what everyone is asking is how can we set this up so that only the admin can control the types and so that the users cannot see them. I am having the problem in which the plugin works (pjw-mime-config-v090) but the users first have to enable it (or i can put it into the mu-plugins) and then have to add the file types before they can upload. It seems to be on a user by user basis and I want to make the changes global. Can anyone modify the code so that only the admin can make changes and globally effect everyone? </p> http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/2544#post-22106 Mon, 26 Feb 2007 10:33:00 +0000 zylstra 22106@http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/ <p>suleiman, your suggestion did not work for me. I see the options, and have added a file type, but I still cannot upload the additional file types.</p> <p>I can't even upload zip files. I can however upload gif's and pdf's. </p> http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/2544#post-21343 Thu, 15 Feb 2007 14:59:02 +0000 drmike 21343@http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/ <p>But we like hacking away at core files. :) </p> http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/2544#post-21309 Thu, 15 Feb 2007 00:21:54 +0000 suleiman 21309@http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/ <p>i came to the above solution after having tried to edit both blogs.php and the options for uploadable file types. I'd strongly encourage using a plugin than hacking away at core files. </p> http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/2544#post-21299 Wed, 14 Feb 2007 18:57:20 +0000 drmike 21299@http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/ <p>Actually it's in wp-content/blogs.php.
