Default Unable to upload attachments/images?

For some reason my uploads are always failing. Tried with my phone (usually worked without a problem in the past) and with Chrome on my Macbook Pro. Seems like the pics are uploading, then just says "upload failed."

Any ideas?

Hmm I've never had an issue due to file size before. Will try again later with a smaller size and see.

Try it again and let us know, I extended the max upload size but it should have been enough. PNG file type was a bit low at 1MB, it is now 8MB.

The "attachment key" chart says jpg files are max 1mb (?!?). Did that recently change? (But gifs are 8+ GB??)

.jpe and .jpeg are 8mb too. The .jpg is still 1mb like it was before. Change that file limit too and I bet most problems will be solved. I've gotten used to edit the pics on my phone slightly before uploading through the browser.

Yuppers- it was the image size. I resized it down and my picture worked.

I changed the file size for all of them to 8.5MB so hopefully it helps a bit so they won't need to be resized as much going forward.
