I'm trying to upload files greater than 10mb to my site, and I keep getting timeout errors. I know that I can change the configuration on the web.config file. But what I would really like to do is to select the file to upload from the main server, not from my local machine. I mean, it's easier for me to use my FTP client to upload all the files from the server, and then just make a reference to them from the Downloads page. But I can't do that because I can only upload from my local PC or from an external source. I know I could choose the external source and provide the link to my ftp server, but when doing that I don´t see the "download" word on the list, but a "visit" word. And that is confusing for my users.

Is there anyway I could select a file from my server instead from my local PC?

I'll try to take a look at a couple of the skins to see if you can't change that Visit to Download. There have been some pretty significant changes in the templating for the 3.1.8 release so I want to make sure I'm not confusing the two before I answer outright.

As far as selecting a file from your server instead of your local PC.... No there isn't as far as uploading goes. By MS design the control only looks at your local computer.

Thanks a lot. Please let me know if I can just change the word 'Visit' for 'Download'.

In the template.xml file, add the following setting to the [DOWNLOAD] tag

 <Object>
  <Token>[DOWNLOAD]</Token>
  <Settings>
   <Setting>
    <Name>URL</Name>
    <Value>DOWNLOAD</Value>
   </Setting>
  </Settings>
 </Object>

Thank you very much. But, where can I find the template.xml file?
