1) FTH does not support the uploading of videos, you will need to use a 3rd party service like you tube.

2) Yes your IP was blocked due to what was seen as a server attack. I have removed the block for now.

I just uploaded the mp4 to the "files" section for members to download. Is that not supposed to work?

I still cannot access the site, but I figure that may take some time?

Thanks,

Sorry, we do not want any video files on the site they take to much room and bandwidth to upload, download, and play.

Brian means that we cannot host video files on the FTH server. If you want to upload the video files to YouTube or similar and incorporate them via an iframe into your website, you *can* do that. That way, they are stored on someone else's server.

Ah ok understood. Good chance to start a club Youtube account! :)

And I just checked again and I can get into the site now from my PC.

Thank you both for all your help!
