increase max_input_vars?

  • Read around and it says that the one managing the server needs to up this? So I sent an email to my host but they said they dont touch any of this and to change it in php.ini in my wordpress file.

    My WP php.ini file only has a line currently on it for “memory_limit = xxxx.” I can change that and the changes are reflected on my “master value” (but not local value) but I need to be able to touch max_input_vars also as doing this memory limit edit didnt seem to do much.

    Currently:
    max_input_vars (local 1000, master 1000)
    memory_limit = (local 256M, master 10000M)

    Any ideas? Thanks!

  • Are you saying that you’ve already added the max_input_vars line to your php.ini, but it isn’t having any effect?

    If so, then you’ll probably need to go back to your host again and ask them why it’s not working as they say it should.

    If not, then you need to add it.

    oh yea forgot to add that i added another line to my php.ini file. Now it reads

    memory_limit = 10000M
    max_input_vars 10000

    im no master coder so i have no idea if thats even right. I have a plugin in WP right now that checks the values and nothing has changed so im guessing it didnt do anything.

    Try including the equal sign:

    max_input_vars = 10000

    ok so that was probably the dumbest mistake ever to hit planet earth. Thanks for the simple heads up lol. Looks like things are working properly now in the meanwhile.

    Glad that did the trick. ??

    I am warned when sending emails that the max_input_vars (0) limits the number of recipients the email can have to 10. I am also told that the php.ini file contains that setting which can be changed.

    I found the php.ini file, but the max_input_vars setting was not in it. So I added the following:
    max_input_vars = 100
    Nothing changed. What else needs to be done?

    I got this problem fixed. We are hosted by GoDaddy, and there support walked me through the steps of creating a .user.ini file in which I put this directive. He suggested I use max_input_vars = 2000.
