On the module page:
> will use the standard File Field behaviour and take the maximum file size from the upload
AFA I can tell, Filefield doesn't use upload module limits at all, just the PHP limit.
See this for example: #150393: Upload limit settings are not respected

joachim commentedTo be a bit less brief, my point is that the current text is misleading -- using upload module's per role limits is an extra feature of this module, and the project page should say so.
Comment #2
greg.harveyHmm, a feature I wasn't aware of! Cool! =)
Still not quite sure I get it though? Could you write the lines you think should be added/changed in here and I'll paste them in to the project page? I think if you write it fully I'll get what you mean...

joachim commentedWell, we're saying:
> will use the standard File Field behaviour and take the maximum file size from the upload
And taking the max size isn't standard FF behaviour.
> will use the standard File Field behaviour
means "use PHP upload limit"
which is not the same as:
> take the maximum file size from the upload
So we're equating two unequal things.
Correct version is to either not mention the standard FF:
> you can simply leave it as 0 and it will take the maximum file size from the upload module settings.
Or to say we do it differently:
Correct version is to either not mention the standard FF:
> you can simply leave it as 0 and it will take the maximum file size from the upload module settings (note this is unlike FF default behaviour which uses only the PHP upload limit).

greg.harveyGotcha. Strange I thought it worked differently. That text is about 3 years old now, I think, so maybe FF has changed. Anyway, fixed and thanks. =)
