 * The church I work for uses a WordPress site, which I just started managing, and
   the Dreamhost engine we use with the site did a spontaneous update and didn’t
   inform us. Long story short – I was informed by the previous web manager (who
   is still our site host) that the update deleted the PHP script we used before,
   which changed the maximum file size upload. Now we can only upload files in WordPress
   up to 7 MBs. This means we can’t upload our sermon podcasts directly thru WordPress
   anymore; instead we’d have to use File Transfer Protocol (FTP). I’ve used FTP
   through my work at a newspaper but I don’t know how to access it for our site.
   We would really like to get our site back to the upload capabilities it had before
   or figure out how to use FTP. Help?
 * My site is coldspringsonline.com.

 * You can ask Dreamhost how to increase your upload size limits. And/or, ask Dreamhost
   for your FTP login credentials and learn to use FTP. See [Filezilla](http://filezilla-project.org/)
   and [FTP Clients « WordPress Codex](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients).
