Tagged:  

At the moment, the only way to modify the GUI, including what tabs are visible, is to modify the code directly.

One easy way to remove one specific tab is to edit one of two files: company_website.php or project_website.php. Both of them are located in /application/helpers/.

When I try to upload a file it says it's limited to 8M? How do I increase that?

Tagged:  

The maximum file size is set in php.ini in two different variables:

post_max_size
upload_max_filesize

ProjectPier will display the lower value of the two, so you need to edit both values.

I downloaded one of your language translations, how do I install it?

2. Open the "/config/config.php" file and set the value of the DEFAULT_LOCALIZATION option to the country code of the language you have unpacked in the "/language" folder (e.g. de_de for the German translation).
