Issue with large image uploads

    Hi ReviewX team,

    We are noticing that users are uploading very large images (some over 1MB) through the ReviewX submission form. This is quickly filling up our server storage.

    Does ReviewX have a built-in feature to:

    • Limit the maximum file size (e.g., prevent uploads larger than 200KB)?
    • Automatically resize or compress images upon upload before they are saved to the server?

    If these features are not available out-of-the-box, could you recommend a compatible way to ensure user-uploaded review photos are optimized?

    Best regards,
    Marty

    Hi @marty333 ,

    Thanks for your query.

    ReviewX allows up to 5MB image upload capacity by default. However, it doesn’t currently offer built-in options to limit file size (e.g., 200KB) or automatically compress/resize images on upload.

    To control large uploads, you can:

    • Lower the upload limit via PHP settings (upload_max_filesize, post_max_size)
    • Use image optimization plugins like Smush, ShortPixel, or Imagify for automatic compression
    • (Optional) Add custom frontend validation to restrict file size before upload

    Let us know if you need help with setup.

    Best regards,
    Mahamudul
