Give user unlimited upload size

Give user unlimited upload size

HI, I am using Moodle v3.4. I want to know if there is a way so I can change a specific user's permission to upload unlimited file size documents in a specific course.

The maximum allowed size for the course is 5MB but I want the user to bypass the size restriction and upload unlimited file size documents.

Is there a way to do this?


Thanks.

Hi,

You cannot restrict or change it as per the user. You can change it at the following level:

  1. Server level
  2. Moodle site level
  3. Course level
  4. Activity level
For more infor check the Moodle docs

Hi,

How can I do this at the Course level?


Is it in the settings of the course?


Thanks.

Hi,

Yes in Course settings, you will find Files and Upload option. Change the upload file size there.

You can only increase the file size in the course settings to the maximum allowed by the site administrator in the global settings, which in turn is determined by the limits set in php and on the server. None of which are (or can be) unlimited.

See https://docs.moodle.org/36/en/File_upload_size for more information.

Hi Visvanath,


I don't want to do it from the server. Since it cannot be done for the user I need to do from the course.


Thanks.
