 * Hello, first of all, congratulations and thank you for this plugin.
 * Even though I added the html file extension in the plugin’s settings, I still
   get this error when uploading files (.html): “This file type is not allowed.”

 * Hello,
 * Thank you so much for your kind words and for using our plugin — we truly appreciate
   your support!
 * Regarding the issue with uploading `.html` files:
   Even if you’ve added the `.
   html` extension in the plugin settings, WordPress itself may still block this
   file type for security reasons. To resolve this, you can use one of the following
   solutions:
 * **Option 1: Add a custom code snippet to allow `.html` uploads**
 * You can add the following code to your theme’s `functions.php` file or use a 
   plugin like _Code Snippets_:
 * `function allow_html_upload($mimes) {
   $mimes['html'] = 'text/html';return $mimes;}
   add_filter('upload_mimes', 'allow_html_upload');
 * **Option 2: Use a plugin to allow more file types**
 * We recommend the free plugin [**File Upload Types** by WPForms](https://wordpress.org/plugins/file-upload-types/)
   
   This plugin allows you to safely enable `.html` and other file types via a friendly
   interface.
 * Thanks
