## Beschreibung

Simple File Upload Limiter lets you set a different maximum upload size for each
kind of file, right from the WordPress admin. Users can’t upload files that exceed
the limits you define, which helps you keep your server resources and media library
under control.

**Features:**

 * Separate limits for images, documents, audio, video and other file types.
 * Limits defined in kilobytes (KB).
 * One simple settings page under Settings > File Upload Limiter.
 * A clear error message tells the user which limit was exceeded.

Looking to limit uploads by user role instead of by file type? Take a look at [Simple Upload Weight Limit](https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-upload-weight-limit/).

## Installation

 1. Upload the `simple-file-upload-limiter` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‚Plugins‘ menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to **Settings > File Upload Limiter** to configure the upload limits.

## FAQ

### Can I set different limits for different file types?

Yes. You can set individual upload limits for images, documents, audio, video, and
other file types from the plugin’s settings page.

### What happens if a user tries to upload a file that exceeds the limit?

The upload is refused and the user sees an error message that includes the file 
type and the allowed limit.

### Does this raise my server’s upload limit?

No. The limits set here can only be lower than or equal to the maximum your hosting
allows (`upload_max_filesize` and `post_max_size` in PHP). They can’t raise it.
