Description of my issue: I'm not sure this is the best place to ask this question, but would like to know the recommended filesize upload for Joomla 2.5.1. I'm finding answers all over the map from 6MB to 500MB.
I know that some of the latest Joomla upgrade files are upwards of 8MB, so should I request 10MB? What are the implications of setting this too high?
Right now I have upload_max_filesize = 2MB
I am unable to upload the larger extensions at the moment, but my host is willing to change the php.ini file for me. I would like to know what's recommended for Joomla 2.5.1.
Thanks!
Janis
