I'm trying to upload a video to my site which is only 7.61MB, but I keep a File Size Error. Any way of determining what the file size limit is? I'm not at all computer techy btw.
Thanks!

You're probably being limited by PHP's upload_max_filesize and/or post_max_size setting and need to increase it. Depending on your hosting provider you may be able to increase this yourself using a php.ini file or changing a setting in your hosting control panel, or you may need to contact support to ask them to do it for you.
Example:
upload_max_filesize = 40M
post_max_size = 40M
You can see what the current PHP settings are by uploading a php file that contains only
<?php
phpinfo()
Not at all computer techy - I assume a customer with an SilverStripe install from a vendor.
It depends on the server by default, but could be set elsewhere (UploadField for instance).
At a random guess I'll say either 2Mb or 4Mb. But there's no easy way to tell for sure if you're not computery techy.
You're absolutely right Pyromanik - SilverStripe. The guys that developed our website have gone into administration. Sounds like I'd better call an expert.
Thanks for replying, much appreciated.
