WP Image Size Limit allows an administrator to set a custom file size limit that is specific to image files and smaller than WordPress’s general file size limit. This is especially useful when you need to put tighter restriction on image uploads but want to preserve the ability to upload larger files of other formats (audio, video, etc.). ## Screenshots * [[ * The limit can be set in the Media panel under Settings. * [[ * The media uploader will display both limits. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/8006731d7ac58d1b431a0f826fa2ae72ca8552043e1e46ac7220d89ed5716c3b? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Brilliant](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/brilliant-1031/)󠁿 [swinggraphics](https://profiles.wordpress.org/swinggraphics/) October 26, 2018 Just what I needed to tamp down those designers who think it’s okay to use 20MB images! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/35450a7872f68f28db0bb4e56895481d6b52bf259af1493c533b4de84c646b88? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Still Working](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/still-working-70/)󠁿 [jc123](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jc123/) May 16, 2018 Thank you for the plugin.
