Question

I need to upload a PDF file to my wordpress site. When I go to Upload New Media, and try uploading it, it says

FileName.pdf

Answer 1

Try with the following plugin:

I built this code based on the following core function:

function wp_max_upload_size() {
    $u_bytes = wp_convert_hr_to_bytes( ini_get( 'upload_max_filesize' ) );
    $p_bytes = wp_convert_hr_to_bytes( ini_get( 'post_max_size' ) );
    $bytes   = apply_filters( 'upload_size_limit', min( $u_bytes, $p_bytes ), $u_bytes, $p_bytes );
    return $bytes;
}

Another option is upload via FTP and use the plugin Add from Server.
