Memory Limit Increase…Nothing is working

    Hello,

    I am attempting to upload the Virtue premium theme, but the max size is too large. It’s giving me this error:
    The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini.

    I have tried everything from editing:
    wp-config.php
    .htaccess
    creating a php.ini file
    creating a php5.ini file
    installing 3 different plugins to increase memory

    None of these options are working.

    Has anyone had luck trying something else? Also, do I need to go back and delete the changes I did make to the above files?

    Thanks.

    Hey,

    Have you already tried to increase the post_max_size value?

    The problem isn’t memory, its upload size.

    You can view your server configuration by creating a PHP document with the following (and nothing else)

    `
    <?php
    phpinfo();
    ?>
    `

    If creating a custom php.ini and changing the upload_max_filesize directive has no effect (check using phpinfo ?? ) then you might have to upload the theme using FTP (which uploads individual files at a time) instead of using the browser.

    Just out of curiosity how big is the theme?

    Cheers
    Ben

    Hello, thanks both for your replies. I ended up creating that php file and uploading it via FTP. It’s 8.3MB. It works now. Great help!
    Thanks.
