Title: alllowed file types
Post by: wacl3 on 19.01.2020 07:59:10
Hi, Im trying to add file types (extensions) allowed.  I know I have to add them to the User group access, but there is also another place I remember I have to put them...(I think in system settings?0 can you please advise?
thanks

Hi
User Group settings allows specifying the uploadable file typesand Preview files when creating/editing in Front End (do not forget to set Ranking value!!)
Other places are for backend in
Config - Downloads tab  "Which file types are to be opened in the Browser?"
Config Monitoring tab "Monitor only the following file types:"
Config Uploads tab - "Allowed image extensions: " and "Other allowed file extensions:"

thanks
but I meant to ask, where do type the list of extensions that are allowed, I have done it in user group settings allowed file extensions, but I know I have to put the list of extensions somewhere else in the system (maybe in  joomla system settings)
thanks

Hi
As far as I recall the only other places where one needs to specify extensions are in the backend Configuration.
Config - Downloads tab  "Which file types are to be opened in the Browser?"
Config Monitoring tab "Monitor only the following file types:"
Config Uploads tab - "Allowed image extensions: " and "Other allowed file extensions:"
