Files not showing at Media Library

  • File which is below 3mb is OK, it doesn’t give any problem but if i upload a file which is 3mb or more it will give me HTTP error. I tried uploading the files from 3rd party like filezilla and it doesn’t not have problem in uploading but it still shows blank at Media Library. All the files above 3MB wont show up on Media Library. Please help!!! thanks

    Uploading a file via FTP (with filezilla) into the directory won’t work as it does not update the database so WordPress doesn’t know about the file.

    The maximum upload size is controlled by the server rather than WordPress. There are a couple of methods you can try to increase the limit:

    edit the php.ini file, or add one to the WordPress’s root directory if there isn’t one:

    
upload_max_filesize = 64M
post_max_size = 64M
max_execution_time = 300

    If you cannot edit or override the system php.ini file, try adding the following lines to the .htaccess file in WordPress’s root directory:

    
php_value upload_max_filesize 64M
php_value post_max_size 64M
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value max_input_time 300

    If these don’t work for you, ask your hosting provider about increasing the maximum file and post sizes on your account as they may have put measures in place to prevent the values being overidden.

    Php.ini file added, still the same. i called up my hosting and asked them to increase the maximum file size and they said that i have to do it by myself. they asked me to do the same thing u told me and asked me to make the php.ini file under the root directory which i did but still nothing changes…

    Tell your host what you have tried and that it is not working as expected.

    If they have a limitation to prevent this from working they should tell you, and if not they should be able to check the the file. If they can’t or don’t want to help you will probably need to find a more helpful host.
