I can’t install plugins, how can I change the max upload size manually on my server?
]]>I want to use your tool to downgrade the max file size to restrict our clients uploads. Can you put 8mb, 4mb, 2mb, and 1mb as well?
If not possible just add 1mb and 4mb, or a custom number field.
]]>Hi, I am setting up a local site to do some experiments on our WP site without impacting the live one. So, I am trying to import the full WP file into the ‘Local’ app.But the file is slightly larger than 2048MB. Is there a solution to that as the plugin appears to top out at the lower figure. As it is a local install, there are no server restrictions involved. THanks a lot, Roger.
]]>Last update was over 1 year ago and also shows as last formally tested to support WordPress 5.8.4.
Although I suspect that there should not be any issues with WordPress 6, it would be good if it was formally tested and “approved” on the latest version – otherwise it can start to feel like abandonware.
Running multiple WordPress sites, and having hit some issues with older plugins now starting to break with WordPress 6, I would like to see each plugin that I use as formally supporting the latest WordPress versions.
]]>i thought that the latest version was able to propose a limit aligned to the one of the hosting provider.
but it is not the case
Maximum upload file size, set by your hosting provider: 2048MB
Maximum upload file size, set by WordPress: 1024MB
You have bug in your code:
public static function upload_max_increase_upload() {
$max_size = (int) get_option( ‘max_file_size’ );
if ( ! $max_size ) {
$max_size = 64 * 1024 * 1024;
}
return $max_size;
}
On one of our client’s site it returns value 47777777777777 that’s max integer value in php.
Using such limit causes other plugins like elementor to crash with all ram used.
Consider limit this by some realistic value like 10GB or 100 GB.

]]>Im using the plugin Increase Maximum Upload File Size, but I can′t upload a bigger file.
I increase mb in my hosting to a GB and also in WordPress. This is de message “Unexpected response from the server. The file may have been uploaded successfully. Check in the Media Library or reload the page”. The file isn′t in Media Library.
How can a do?
]]>Hi. I’ve installed the plug-in and now it’s telling me I can upload up to 1 gig. How do I make this bigger? (Ideally up to 3 gig.) Thanks.
]]>When i clicked activate plugin, i lost the ability to enter admin panel. The app is entirely down.
Error: “Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.”
WP version: 5.3.4
Login url: domain/wp-admin/
Is it possible to do?
]]>Hello, the smallest size for the upload size is currently 16 MB. The values are fixed in the plug-in. Is there a way to set smaller sizes with this plugin?
Many thanks.
]]>Hi,
a user complaints that uploads don’t work.
Both the plugin and Server download capacity is set to 128GB.
The uploads permitts .flac and .wav music files.
No error message, other than file upload finishes at 65%.
User tried both options, multi file uploader and browser uploader.
Thank you much for help with what I am doing wrong?

]]>Latest update will cause the plugin to display twice in the plugin listing.
]]>Hi,
Does this plugin work with multi-site? I have uploaded it, but can’t see any settings in the settings. Then when I try to upload a big plugin, I get this error:
“The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini.”
Thanks in advance for any help
]]>As the plugin correctly points out, “It’s NOT POSSIBLE to increase the hosting defined upload limit from a plugin.”
In which case, the plugin should not offer to increase the filesize beyond the hosting settings.
So should be plugin be called “Limit Maximum Upload File Size”, because if I set my hosting limit to a larger value, then I don’t need the plugin. unless I want to limit the value to something smaller.
]]>Please can you add also …1GB, 3GB, 6GB, 9GB max upload size?
Thank you
I need to upload a file larger than 1 GB. Could you please add extra limits or no limit option? Thanks!
]]>Also I have an http error for uploads that are larger than 64 MB.
It must be possible to get larger files into this WP on a root server.
]]>Hi,
When uploading I am getting a HTTP error after installing this plugin.
Is the plugin not working?
Thanks,

Hi ,
Please check the link below if you are getting any issue
This plugin only changes the max_file_size option in the WP DB of the site to a value in bytes (ridiculous it can’t take a “K” or “M” suffix for the size). This is *not correct* because clearly the author hasn’t actually read the WP core code to see how WP limits the max upload filesize.
Firstly, you need to look at the function wp_max_upload_size() in wp-includes/media.php. This read’s php.ini’s upload_max_filesize and post_max_size (hint for the author: wp_convert_hr_to_bytes() !!) and passes the lower of the two through to an upload_size_limit filter.
You’ll find upload_size_limit_filter() in wp-includes/ms-functions.php and this looks in the site’s options table for the value of fileupload_maxk (falling back to 1500 if it’s not set). The smaller of the value passed through to the filter vs. the value of fileupload_maxk is then also compared against the filestore space free and the smallest of the lot is returned (unless that space check is disabled).
Although this plugin is seriously faulty, it does highlight that fileupload_maxk doesn’t seem to be changeable from within the WP admin interface (even via /wp-admin/options.php) and this is particularly bad because it had a low value in my install (8000, which is just under 8MiB). I ended up using mysql on the command line to update the options table to change fileupload_maxk, which is quite hacky.
]]>I have increased the limit to 250 mb.
The images are uploading properly but while uploading videos it is saying HTTP Error
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
The plugin, Increase Max Upload Filesize, worked well when I first installed it. Weeks later, I go back to upload another file, just 2.5mb, and it isn’t working. Tells me to check the php.ini
]]>Won’t work on this version of WordPress This is the message I get
The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini.
Can you help?

Solved the upload limit problem for me, after I copied the files from the plugin’s help folder, which includes php.ini files, to the WordPress root as the author suggests.
Without doing that the upload size limit didn’t change even though an increased figure was shown on the Media – Add new screen
]]>Couldn’t make it work with my version of wordpress
]]>I have the size set to 250MB from within the plugin. I have also replaced the php.ini files with the ones in the help directory. However, I cannot upload files larger than 30MB or I get an HTTP error. I can upload upload a file that is 27MB but not 32MB.
]]>Changing the settings in the plugin reflects a change in the wording of the upload limit, but when actually trying to upload anything larger than 2 mb, it doesn’t work, and in fact throws a different error citing php.ini restrictions.
