Hi @rikschennink,

I’ve noticed that FilePond doesn’t display error messages by default when a user exceeds maxFiles or maxFileSize. This can confuse users as they don’t know why their files are rejected. Would it be possible to add default error messages for these cases, or is there a recommended way to handle this?

Example suggestion:

labelMaxFilesExceeded: 'Too many files selected!',
labelMaxFileSizeExceeded: 'File too large!'

Thank you for your work on FilePond!

### Describe the solution you'd like

Example suggestion:
```javascript
labelMaxFilesExceeded: 'Too many files selected!',
labelMaxFileSizeExceeded: 'File too large!'

### Describe alternatives you've considered

None

Hi @peacetree, valid point, for now you can listen to the 'FilePond:warning' event, it'll fire for these circumstances, you can then place a custom error message below the container.

In FilePond v5 these component wide warnings will be delegated to the HTML validation API.

Thank you for your reply. Is there any update on the roadmap status for FilePond v5?

No, not really, super busy working on it, expect the first beta to be available within a month
