"not found" error for certain file type

    I have successfully added three file types to the allowed list (.fpl, .ftr, .rpy). All three can now be uploaded to the Media Library, and two of them behave exactly as expected. However, whenever I link to a .fpl file, it produces the “This is somewhat embarrassing, isn’t it?” file not found page.

    I cannot figure out what is different about this file type. I added them in the same way at the same time. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

    Many thanks!

    I’m having the same problem. Did you ever resolve this? I’m being told by hosting company that it’s a windows server issue.

    In my case, it was not an issue with this plugin or with WordPress. Dreamhost tech support was able to help me sort this out by adding the following to my .htaccess file:

    AddType application/octet-stream fpl
RemoveHandler .fpl

    Hope that helps!
