| Setting | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Settings | ||
| Quota (Mb): | Maximum per user storage capacity | |
| Use database to store userfiles: | MySQL database is used to store the files. This will be necessary if your host does not support file storage, but if there are many users there could be a performance impact | |
| Use a directory to store userfiles: | Store files directly in a host directory. Gives better performance than the database option, but you will need to backup that directory separately | |
| Path: | Relative or absolute path to the User Files storage directory |
