    my website is targeted for use by BMW motorcycle clubs. As such, we will want to share gpx files. I added gpx as a valid extension for documents but when I tried to upload a gpx file I was told it was not allowed for security reasons. How might I work around this?

    Hi Brent,
    Thank you for the question.
    In addition to adding the type to MediaPress, you will need a way to allow uploads in WordPress.

    You can use any plugin that allows extending/adding new mime types. Here are 2 which you may use(any of them)
