Hey folks, I'm having a nightmare trying to sort out my download page... I made it on wordpress and used that exclude pages plugin to hide it no problems.. but I have a massive zip file 106mb that I'm trying to upload so can't do it from within wordpress.. I've used filezilla ftp and tryed putting it in various folders but when I copy the link onto wordpress I just get the 404 error, once it said it was corrupt but it isn't, I checked it!!

Does anyone know which folder within wordpress I should upload it to so it works, and what path that would be for the link to put onto the download page? I just want it so they can click the link and and instantly download the zip file.

Or is it may be just too large, I can't do it from the cpanel, max that lets you do is 20mb at once but I have no overall limit?

Any help would be massivly appreciated!!

Cheers everyone

    I would just upload it by ftp to your server, even in its own folder outside wordpress. Then just do a full hyper link url to it http://mydomain.com/mydownload.zip should work
