Changelog

See docs/CHANGELOG.md

Paste now supports pastes of upto 4GB in size, and this is configurable in config.php

However, this relies on the value of post_max_size in your PHP configuration file.

// Max paste size in MB. This value should always be below the value of
// post_max_size in your PHP configuration settings (php.ini) or empty errors will occur.
// The value we got on installation of Paste was: post_max_size = 1G
// Otherwise, the maximum value that can be set is 4000 (4GB)
$pastelimit = "1"; // 0.5 = 512 kilobytes, 1 = 1MB

To enable registration with OAUTH see this block in config.php

// OAUTH (to enable, change to yes and edit)
$enablefb = "no";
$enablegoog = "no";

// "CHANGE THIS" = Replace with your details
// Facebook
define('FB_APP_ID', 'CHANGE THIS'); // Your application ID, see https://developers.facebook.com/docs/apps/register
define('FB_APP_SECRET', 'CHANGE THIS');    // What's your Secret key

// Google 
define('G_Client_ID', 'CHANGE THIS'); // Get a Client ID from https://console.developers.google.com/projectselector/apis/library
define('G_Client_Secret', 'CHANGE THIS'); // What's your Secret ID
define('G_Redirect_Uri', 'http://urltoyour/installation/oauth/google.php'); // Leave this as is
define('G_Application_Name', 'Paste'); // Make sure this matches the name of your application

Everything else can be configured using the admin panel.
