There seems to be about a 128 KB limit on the size of files that can be attached to posts. This is a small limit, smaller than it used to be.

When trying to attach a file larger than 128 KB, it seems to upload but then the status indicator shows an error ( ), clicking on it gives a popup message
"ERROR Failed to move uploaded file."

Looking at the page source, I see the javascript is defining two variables
max_file_size: '262144b',
chunk_size: '131072b',
it seems to be limiting it to the chunk size, whatever a chunk is in this case

I don''t know what file size you want the limit to be, but the feedback to the user isn't helpful, took me a while to figure out why I couldn't upload a 135KB gif The attachment size limit used to be about 1MB, the javascript seems to indicated a limit of 256 KB, and the current reality is about 128 KB

Yeah took me a while to figure it out too

There is both an attachment size limit for each one that is not listed
And a number of attachments limit (or maybe it goes by total size) after three attachments, it complains no matter how big/small they are

bump, not quite a year yet, have an idea what it is empirically, but any official word on what the attachment limit is intended to be?

With the recent events of Photobucket holding the Internet at gunpoint over third party hosting... this limit is all the more problematic.

Can we do anything about this?

I am going to save pdf copies of the discussion/tutorial/mod that I like. So when someone else needs the information, I can upload that pdf.
