Issue status update for http://drupal.org/node/24183 Project: Drupal Version: cvs Component: upload.module Category: tasks Priority: normal Assigned to: drumm Reported by: drumm Updated by: Dries Status: patch Removing the global check is OK if we remove the '0 is unlimited'-paradigm. A paradigm which, by the way, is developer-centric. I don't mind us removing it. Dries Previous comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ June 2, 2005 - 20:02 : drumm Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/upload.module_5.diff (4.01 KB) Currently the upload module checks two max file sizes. First it checks a global option; if its too big it quits. Then it checks another max file size (or even sizes) related to the roles which a user is in. We can remove the global option since the individual roles are checked. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ June 2, 2005 - 20:15 : drumm Oh and this includes a refactoring which changes one undocumented function that did two things into two documented functions that do one thing each. Forgot about that part. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ June 2, 2005 - 20:22 : Steven Well, you're not entirely correct... upload module allows you to disable a limit by setting it to 0. Thus, you could either want per-role settings, or global settings. Or use the global setting for everyone, except have one role have a stricter limit. So we need to decide whether these are valid use cases, or just unnecessary complexity. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ June 2, 2005 - 21:21 : Bèr Kessels I add a +1 for anything that removes complexity from the upload module. So I +1 this change.
