==Configuring file uploads ⌘==<br />
<br />
We need to enable file uploads in LocalSettings.php and php.ini.<br />
<br />
You may wish to change max file size allowed. This can be done in your php.ini file.<br />
<br />
On Ubuntu it is found in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini<br />
<br />
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Configuring_file_uploads<br />
<br />
==Adding a file ⌘==<br />
By default you need to be logged in to upload a file<br />
<br />
To upload a file just click on the "Upload file" link under Toolbox on the sidebar or navigate to [[Special:Upload]]<br />
<br />
You can change what file types are allowed in LocalSettings.php<br />
<br />
$wgFileExtensions = array();<br />
<br />
certain file types are dangerous to allow however, see http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Images_and_other_uploaded_files<br />
