It does not allow you to upload other file types.

I needed to add some .exe files to my Wordpress site, and this plugin did the job,
something that other people don’t do is add the instruction « define(‘ALLOW_UNFILTERED_UPLOADS’,
true); » into wp-config.php file, this did the trick with last Wordpress version
6.6.2 works like a charm. Finally restart Wordpress and it’s done.

I read several « it doesn’t work »-remarks: it works fine, but the documentation
and description doesn’t help newcomers! Settings you’ll find in section « Settings,
Extra File Types » It only inserts the required filter statements so wordpress allows
to upload and managing those files. The plugin itself doesn’t bring file support
itself – only modifies the upload-filter!

Works partially. With correct mime type, yes you can upload new files as « documents»,
but they are either refused in the end, or renamed into TIF extension if the mimtype
is image. impossible to insert them as attachement in a post. there is a better 
plugin out there that creates posts for that purpose.

This was great. We are a publisher, so the inability to upload .epub files as a 
Woocommerce product was a killer. It uses the Wordpress file types list. What you
have to do is remember to go to Settings in Wordpress and select the file types 
you want AND scroll right to the bottom and save the changes. I didn’t do that first
time – thinking that toggling the checkbox was enough, so it didn’t remember.
