Uploading File size wont update

Hi,

Try these ones:

1. in you theme functions.php add:
@ini_set( ‘upload_max_size’ , ‘200M’ );
@ini_set( ‘post_max_size’, ‘200M’);
@ini_set( ‘max_execution_time’, ‘300’ );

2. in php.ini:
upload_max_filesize = 200M
post_max_size = 200M
max_execution_time = 300

3. in .htaccess file:
php_value upload_max_filesize 200M
php_value post_max_size 200M
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value max_input_time 300

Let me know if the issue will not go away.

Hello thank you for the reply.

I tried method 1 & 2 and did not work.

I will try method 3 but I need to ask a question. In my htaccess file, there are all # everywhere. do I need to place this 3rd code in some particular line? or at the beginning of the file?

Hi,

You should place it inside ‘ifmodule’ section, something like this:
<IfModule mod_php5.c>
php_value post_max_size 10M
php_value upload_max_filesize 40M
php_value memory_limit 500M
</IfModule>

I tried the 3rd method and my site went all blank, none of these methods worked. I pasted the original text back into place of the .htaccess file, and my website functioned again.

What else is left I can try?

But I’d like to know, what can my Web host company do from their end?

I didnt use the: <IfModule mod_php5.c> </IfModule>

I just inserted at the bottom of the page:

php_value post_max_size 10M
php_value upload_max_filesize 40M
php_value memory_limit 500M

Would it makes a difference?

Is this legit, my web host company said:

There is nothing we can do about it. From our end we have the php set to maximum uploads 1GB for your site. So it’s a WP issue you have to sort out.

Let’s check current limits to be sure was it applied or not after your modifications.
Please create phpinfo.php file that contains
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
inside.
Place the file to the /var/www/vhosts/example.com/httpdocs/
Or to the httpdocs/ if you have access just to your webspace.
And access it via browser as https://yourWebsiteName.domainName/phpinfo.php

It will show various parameters, but you need to check:
memory_limit
post_max_size
upload_max_filesize
And publish the value here.

btw, did you paste exactly this text into .htaccess:

php_value post_max_size 10M
php_value upload_max_filesize 40M
php_value memory_limit 500M

or changed it and increased values up to 200M at least? Just in case ??

I changed the limits to 200! ??

Ill give the other method with the <?php phpinfo(); ?> a go now, and see how it works, Ill keep you posted.

regarding the <?php phpinfo(); ?> I was all ready shown by my host company which showed me the value, but ill post here too, just in case they missed something.

you will see the: upload_max_filesize 1G
