WordPress upload file type security restrictions
I just posted a little article on my WordPress blog about the new release of my Open all links extension for Thunderbird. I tried to attach a XPI file to the article, but I got the error message: File type does not meet security guidelines.
Via a topic on the WordPress support forum I found Peter Westwood’s pjw-mime-config WordPress Plugin which allows you to manage the mime-types supported by the inline uploader. Adding the file extension xpi with the mime type application/x-xpinstall did the trick.
