File uploads with JCE on front end

[levisan]

I've got JCE set up on a site and am using it for both front end and back end editing. I've got the upload size limit set to what JCE is saying the server's max is, 32768 KB. (Not sure where it gets this number, the server's php.ini is set to 50 MB, but that's not a big deal.)

When I upload a 20 MB file with JCE from the back end, all works well. When I try to do the same on the front end, I'm given a notice that there's a 8 MB limit. I've got the same editor profile set to both front and back.

Anyone have any idea why this could be happening?

Except upload_max_filesize you must check also and post_max_size .
For example if you want 50M then you must have in php.ini or.user.ini(it depends from your server configuration)

Code: Select all

upload_max_filesize = 50M
post_max_size = 50M

.
If you server uses the .htaccess file for php changes then you must have

Code: Select all

php_value upload_max_filesize 50M
php_value post_max_size 50M

.
You can check what you have with a phpinfo file http://php.net/manual/en/function.phpinfo.php

I was going to say I had done that, but I thought I'd check anyway. I noticed that there was a php.ini in /administrator, and that lead me to the solution. Thanks for your help!
