I can't replicate the problem. I tried uploading docx files as part of a .zip and .tar archive which also contained other file formats, and in both cases Mahara treated the docx correctly as a single file. (Using master branch of Mahara, Firefox Quantum 58.0, php 7.1.13)

Mahara allows unzipping of these files and breaks the files into individual components (eg XML metadata). When downloading the uploaded file, the browser recognises the file as a zip file, but the OS recognises the file correctly as a .docx To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mahara/+bug/803229/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~mahara-contributors Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~mahara-contributors More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
