 * Hi I’m using your GREAT PLUG IN! And I’m planning to get the pro versión because
   I need multiple uploads and to be able to upload in movile devices. But I’m having
   problems with one file that doesen’t wants to be uploaded! Here I send you the
   diferent messages I get with the uploaded file and the one that doesen’t. The
   file that I can’t upload weights 22k so I don’t thing that’s the problem, besides
   I was able to upload it yesterday. By the way I don’t want to have an email notification.

   > xls
 * This is the shortcode I’m using
 * [wordpress_file_upload uploadtitle=”Sube los archivos de tu deporte” uploadrole
   =”subscriber” selectbutton=”Buscar” uploadbutton=”Actualizar” successmessage=”
   El archivo %filename% se actualizó con éxito” notify=”true” adminmessages=”true”]
 * I hope you can help me!!
    Best Regards!

 * I just changed the file name to rol-bfem2.xls instead of rol-bfem.xls and it 
   worked. The problem here is that I need the file to be named EXACTLY THE SAME
   each time it is uploaded. I have no idea why this stoped working!
    Could you 
   tell me please what might be causing this?
