Princess Celestia Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 My community has a need to host some files for new Pages pages we're building which aren't accepted by the Pages Media Manager. This feature unfortunately restricts uploads to an allowlist of specific file extensions: Unlike for attachments, I couldn't find any settings to configure this list. How can I make Pages allow other file types (or all file types - we trust those who have access to this part of the ACP) through? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Stridgen Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 There is no way in which to configure that list at the present time. If you wish for new types to be added, it would be worth posting up as a feature request Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Nathan Explosion Posted May 1, 2023 Solution Share Posted May 1, 2023 See how the attached works for you - single setting, type extension, enter a comma if multiples, save. if it works OK, I'll bundle it into this: (NE) Additional Pages media types 1.0.0.xml ArashDev, Princess Celestia and Marc Stridgen 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for making it. It works! The one thing that would make this plugin even better is if it enabled an admin to blanket-allow all extensions in the Media Manager, similar to what's possible with attachments in the core software. We trust our admins with this power. 🙂 Nathan Explosion 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not possible, as the form field can't be modified in that way (it requires a listing of allowed file types) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, thank you! I look forward to having your new setting in the Box of Tricks app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look forward to having your new setting in the Box of Tricks app. There's a surprise in the now released v1.3.0 of the app. UPDATE: yeah, the surprise for me is that the surprise triggers an error on save which didn't pop up in testing. I'll sort out and get a v1.3.1 out soon - in the meantime, a workaround is to ensure that the "Allow these additional file types" field has at least one entry in it.

Nathan Explosion Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 (edited) @Princess Celestia can I ask when you installed v1.3.0 of the resource? I don't see you as a downloader of the application, and I suspect there may be an issue with downloads that may need to be reported to Invision.

My ACP says ~17 hours ago but my site's Invision license is attached to a different account so the download would have come through that one. If you want, I can message you the other account's name so you can cross-verify it against your download log. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Explosion Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 No, that matches up to what I'm seeing. Princess Celestia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
