Maximum File Size

    10 years, 5 months ago

    I am using WordPress on Names.co.uk servers

    My maximum upload file size is 1MB

    I have asked my host and they say their upload max is 128MB and have shown me the phpinfo file which states the same.

    Then I tried using a plugin which also confirmed my settings are set to 128MB

    But still the upload new media screen says 1MB

    Can anyone help please? I am running Catch Kathmandu Pro but it is the same with twentyfourteen theme. My site is setup as a multisite.

    The maximum upload size is controlled at the server-level, not by WordPress. Here are two ways you can increase the upload limit:

    1. If you can edit or override the system php.ini file, increase the maximum file and post sizes. For example, upload_max_filesize = 128M ; and post_max_size = 128M ;

    2. If you cannot edit or override the system php.ini file, add php_value upload_max_filesize 128M and php_value post_max_size = 128M to your .htaccess file.

    (in the above examples, the limit is set to 128MB)

    Make sure that one of those two methods has been done in its entirety.

    Thanks for your help James. Both those things were already in place.

    However, I did manage to solve the problem within WordPress. In the Multisite settings page there was a maximum file size set to 1500KB. I have changed this and it works fine now.

    Thanks again

    You’re welcome!

    Next time, make sure you post in the Multisite forum. ??
