Editor

If quotas have been enabled for a storage, they will immediately take effect on most of the actions in the storage. Any upload, copy, create, cross-storage-move or replace action will be monitored and checked whether the result will result in exceeding the quota limits. If this happens, editors get a verbose error message.

Backend Integration and Warnings

Warnings are issued as flash messages and shown in the FILE > Filelist module [1]:

Quota warning in the File List Backend module

Tip

Quota checks prevent any action like copy, move, create, replace or add, if the result will exceed quota limits. It is possible to delete files and folders though.
