SVG file is not allowed for security reasons

  • Anyone that comes across this error:
    “SVG file is not allowed for security reasons”

    If the SVG was hand coded or exported from Illustrator, it may be missing the opening XML element and attributes.

    Basically, edit your SVG in an IDE, code editor, or text editor and add this as the first line:
    <?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>

    Save, and you should be allowed to upload.

  • Hi,
    That is not working for me. The plugin was working fine but today I tried to upload a new SVG image and suddenly I got the “SVG file is not allowed for security reasons” message.

    I even tried to upload SVG images that I already successfully uploaded before but this time the uploading failed.

    Do you know why this is happening?
