upload non-image files
Hi All!

When I try to upload files of type .pdf or .ppt I get the warning: not a
recommended file format (in german).

Is ist possible to enable the upload of non-image files at all?

Thanks!

You can override the $wgFileExtensions in the DefaultSettings.php.

Cheers,

I recomend doing that by copying it to LocalSettings.php and changing
that (that little detail didn't seem to be mentioned anywhere),
especially since the realease of 1.3.7 (which only changed
DefaultSettings.php)
