Drupal - disk quota of 10 MB has been reached

Disk Quota Defaults

Are you seeing the following error message:

"The selected file cannot be attached to this post, because the disk quota of 10 MB has been reached"?

Never fear, CWD is here

By default Drupal imposes a file upload limit on each user (with the exception of admin).  To change the default, simply browse to:

4.7:  Administer -> Settings -> Upload

5.0:  Administer -> Site Configuration -> File Uploads

On the next screen you'll be able to open drop-down boxes for each user role you've defined.  The settings you can adjust include:

• Permitted file extensions:
• Maximum file size per upload:
• Total file size per user:

The last one, "Total file size per user," is the one you'll need to increase from 10mb to avoid this error.  Enter any number you wish, keeping in mind your server, or hosting plan's, resources.
