Title: How to increase limits on activity attachments?
ThreadText: # How to increase limits on activity attachments?
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2015-08-28)
  
  Current (4.6.7) limits say that an activity can have up to 3 attachments, each being less than 2MB.
  
  I need more, and a bigger file size limit.
  
  **What are the obstacles to achieving this?**
  
  * I can't see anything in the db schema that implies a limit per activity, so is it just the UI that imposes the number of file limits?
  * The files are stored (I assume) in the `civicrm_file.document` field which is a `MEDIUM_BLOB` and can therefore store a file just under 4GB. (my requirements are only ~20MB.) Is that 2MB limit set in a PHP ini file?
  
  Thanks.
