Posted by Beatplexity, 09-28-2011, 03:51 PM | my file sharing site is moving over to wordpress and i was wondering what would be the most reliable upload code language to use for our uploader
there are 100's of upload plugins for wordpress but i am unsure what is the most stable and reliable?

Posted by Beatplexity, 09-28-2011, 04:04 PM | Is it good for large file uploads
my site host files mostly ranging from 50mb - 200mb
ive had problems in the past with uploaders just stopping half way through and stuff, it really annoys users

Increase memory allocations & execution times

Posted by Beatplexity, 09-28-2011, 04:15 PM | yes i think the developer tried this but no luck
i just guess i need to get someone more skilled to tweak the server to make sure it can handle the long uploads when i launch the new site

|
Posted by Beatplexity, 09-29-2011, 04:02 PM | thanks for the advice guys
i asked my developer the same questions and he said he would most likely use uploadify.
i guess im in safe hands with that uploader then

Posted by Beatplexity, 10-01-2011, 09:09 AM | because it would probably cost me a lot more to setup
also people dont want to have to install a ftp program they want to, and are use to doing it on the website
