The Golden Age of Gaia and the WordPress software has size limitations on uploading files, either via the Media Library or inserting media into pages/posts. Currently the maximum file size that may be uploaded is 2 MB (Megabytes).
If you have larger files (even say 1 MB files), there is another option… and that is to use our Amazon S3 service. Use this option if you are mostly interested in providing a simple download link.
Here are the instructions for how to use this.
Prerequisite: Install Java
Your computer and web browser must be capable of running Java. It is very likely your computer already has this, but if not here is the download link:
