Add-on's size
Hi, sorry, never tried developing add-ons, but was connected to this theme because I'm in touch with some add-on developers. So, after last add-on update, developer found out, that size of add-on is too high, so it can't be downloaded to server. Developer said, that it's because size of this file is bigger than size of mainline eras, so i've got a question: how big the limit is and can it be increased, so file can be uploaded on server?

Re: Add-on's size
Limit is not related to size of mainline.
Re: Add-on's size
Your add-on is probably too large because of big image files. Try to compress them with optipng to decrease the file size.
Re: Add-on's size
It is 100mb. Sound files are another common reason for size.
Re: Add-on's size
Have you tried to compress the music? The Opus codec (which supersedes Vorbis and Speex) should lead to smaller file sizes than the lossless FLAC codec.
