How to allow .ged file uploads

admin管理员组

文章数量:1130349

I am trying to allow gedcom file uploads. These files have a .ged extension.

Gedcom files do not have a mime type.

I have tried the following code with various text/types such as csv, rtf etc without success.

    function my_mime_types($mime_types){
$mime_types['ged'] = 'text/csv';
    return $mime_types;}
add_filter('upload_mimes', 'my_mime_types', 1, 1);

Any suggestions as to how to add this type of file extension to the permitted uploads?

you need to allow them to be uploaded in your media files.

you can add following code to your themes functions.php and it should work.

function my_mime_types($mime_types){
    $mime_types['ged'] = 'application/octet-stream';
    return $mime_types;
}
add_filter('upload_mimes', 'my_mime_types', 1, 1);

there is more information about adding new mime types in WP here: https://wpsmackdown/add-remove-filetypes-wordpress-media-library/#add-filetypes

Here is an info about the .ged File MIME Type: https://whatis.techtarget/fileformat/GED-Genealogical-data-GEDCOM

And here a list of the mime_types: https://feedforall/mime-types.htm

I have now resolved this by changing the type to text/plain so the code now looks like:

function my_mime_types($mime_types){
$mime_types['ged'] = 'text/plain';
return $mime_types;}
add_filter('upload_mimes', 'my_mime_types', 1, 1);

It seems that a security patch in v5.0.1 and v4.9.9 has tightened up the mime type of uploads and the checking of the file types.
