The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini

[Brazmus]

Trying to upload a plugin called Sociable that i saw you mention in another post Dan. It's over 4MB and when trying to install it, I get an error message as I do with another plugin too, saying that it's too big.

The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini.

I tried contacting Go Daddy for them to alter my php.ini file for me and they gave me a new file and advised me to change it from 2M to 64M or something. Still hasn't fixed the issue unfortunately.

What do you recommend?

Unzip it and install the folder via FTP.

Easy as. I did this with another one a while back but it didn't work. This time it worked for two plugins I had problems with. I think making sure the folder being uploaded with a dash '-' in between each word did the trick. Thanks mate.
