CSV file not uploading on Wordpress

Question

I\'m unable to upload CSV file on the WordPress website

error: Sorry, this file type is not permitted for security reasons

Check the following

Answer 1

In case you are developing a custom theme , add this to your function.php to authorize mimes for uploads :

function my_custom_mime_types( $mimes ) {

// New allowed mime types.
$mimes['csv'] = 'text/csv';

// Optional. Remove a mime type.
unset( $mimes['exe'] );

return $mimes;
}

Add it to the filter upload_mimes

add_filter( 'upload_mimes', 'my_custom_mime_types' );

Check here the rest of all mimes type you can authorize.

The point here is that you are controlling all authorized mimes in your website .
