Large File Uploads

Permalink
We've got a client who needs to be able to accept multiple file uploads from a contact form, each possibly up to 200MB in size.

Aside from the issues with server storage and PHP settings...is there anything out there for Concrete5 that's meant to handle this kind of thing?

Will the out-of-the-box File Upload feature on the Form Builder work?

Any other concerns I should be thinking about?

Usually such large file uploads are really troublesome.

I would suspect that the build-in upload features of c5 are as error prone as any other.

I haven't inspected the possibility but I think you could try to implement plupload into your site (plupload.com). It's an upload plugin made by the same people who are behind tinyMCE (WYSIWYG-editor used by c5).

I have used it successfully on my projects outside of c5 for files over 600 mb.

But I think you might need to build some kind of a plugin to implement it to your site.
