Description

Import WXR post_max_size < file size fails with AYS then "File is empty. Please upload something more substantial."

ENV: WP / trunk r5411

I have an 18.7 MB WXR file to restore, so I increased upload_max_filesize to 20M, but I did not know to also increase post_max_size from 8M. That is what resulted in this confusing error symptoms.

wp_import_upload_form() should take post_max_size into consideration and display the lesser of it and upload_max_filesize as the limit.

(In [5964]) Take post_max_size into account when determining the upload limit. Props mdawaffe. fixes #4240
