Manual talk:$wgCheckFileExtensions
Latest comment: 17 years ago by Gadlen
HELP: What do you need to include after this variable to get MediaWiki to accept all files as uploads? TIA
I put the following just below the pre-existing $wgEnableUploads = true in my LocalSettings.php and it worked. This took much trial and error, I'm not exactly sure why. Gadlen 08:54, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
$wgStrictFileExtensions = false; $wgCheckFileExtensions = false; $wgUploadSizeWarning = 8000000;

The page says that due to the bug, whether $wgCheckFileExtensions is an override is unclear. But the bug is fixed, so please clarify.
