Per-type file size limits (image/video)

Describe your feature request

I request separate max file size limits for images and videos.

The current single limit is inflexible, forcing administrators to allow oversized image uploads (e.g., 1 GB) just to accommodate large videos. My proposed solution is to replace the single Max. file size (MB) setting in usergroup permissions with two distinct fields: one for images and one for videos.

This would provide much-needed resource control and make Chevereto more versatile for mixed-media sites.

Where did you see this?

This is a standard feature on most web platforms that handle different media types, recognizing that their storage and processing needs vary significantly.

Community interest

While this is a new thread, this functionality is a fundamental need for any administrator managing a site with both images and videos, giving it a very broad appeal.

All services I have ever used always limit per file size, not per file type+size. Which web platforms use different limits per file type?

In Chevereto you can configure if your given Upload storage stores images and videos, that way you can have dedicated storage for each media kind.
