    Hi there,

    I had the permalink settings set to be user friendly (i.e.: domain-name.com/post-title), then I went ahead and switched it to default to write down my Post I.Ds which immediately announced an error..

    I can still access the dashboard and all, but I am unable to open and edit the permalink settings which is quite an issue as I need the permalinks to be user-friendly once again.

    Here is the error:
    Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 62652416) (tried to allocate 49152 bytes) in /home1/carlblanchet/public_html/wp-admin/menu-header.php on line 154

    How could I fix this issue?

    Thanks in advance!

    Carl

  • Here are some things to try.
    1. If you have access to your PHP.ini file, change the line in PHP.ini
    If your line shows 32M try 64M:
    memory_limit = 64M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (64MB)

    2. If you don’t have access to PHP.ini try adding this to an .htaccess file:
    php_value memory_limit 64M

    3. Try adding this line to your wp-config.php file:
    Increasing memory allocated to PHP
    define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’64M’);

    4. Talk to your host.

    I have no idea where to find all these files but I will research all this information.

    Thank you for your reply.

    I managed to install a plugin (WP Config File Editor) to access and edit the wp-config.php file and changed the memory limit to 64 which then allowed me access to the settings i needed.

    Thanks again for your reply!
