Hey Otto. You da’ man!!! Downloaded the new files and edited ‘wp-login’ per your instructions. My Lost Password problems with WP 2.5.1 are no more. Thanks for your help!

any thoughts?

small bump.

I’m having a similar issue. The email that my subscribers are receiving is not the same as what is set in the PROFILE or SETTINGS > GENERAL locations. Both of those are set to: [email protected].

Thanks, Les! Appreciate your stab at this. It’s hard to imagine why wrong paths would result in one browser resolving properly and another not resolving properly, but I suppose it could be. The paths look to be correct to me.

I took your advice and posted to the G2 forum. I wasn’t sure about posting to both. Didn’t want to upset anyone.

Well, I took a bit of a brute force approach. I copied the php.ini file to the root directory for my WP install and to every sub-directory under it. That fixed the issue.

I hope it doesn’t cause me trouble in the future. For others who need to take a similar approach I used this script to do the work of copying the php.ini to all the sub-directories:

<?php
system(“find * -type d|xargs -i cp –verbose php.ini {}/.”);
?>

Here’s what you do:

1. Create a new file called ‘copyphpini.php’ in your WP root.
2. Paste the code above in the file & save.
3. Use a web browser to go to: https://www.yourdomain.com/wpdirectory/copyphpini.php
4. The locations to which the file is copied will output in the browser window

I cannot guarantee that the additional instances of your php.ini file will not muck up things for you. Undoing could be as easy as modifying the script to remove instead of copy, but I haven’t tried.

This gets interesting. phpinfo() returns different results depending on which directory it is in:

* if my updated php.ini is in the same directory as phpinfo.php then phpinfo.php returns the modified settings (memory_limit=64MB & upload_max_filesize=50MB)

* if my updated php.ini is NOT in the same directory as phpinfo.php then phpinfo.php returns the default settings (memory_limit=32MB & upload_max_filesize=2MB)

The question is – Where does php.ini need to be located for NGG to work with the modified settings?

Alex, where do I find the ‘server settings’ you mention?

Joni, thanks for the input. My web host insists that they do not control my memory limits. The only way to lower or raise the limit is via the php.ini which I have complete control over.

As far as placement of the php.ini file, sounds like you literally copied it to every directory associated with Nextgen-Gallery. I wonder about a better approach. Someone suggested you could create a symbolic link to the file via .htaccess. This would allow an easy undo of this change if necessary. It would also take care of added directories in the future. I’m not very good at modifying the .htaccess file. If someone knows how to do what I’m talking about I’d appreciate any help.

Thanks for the help. I understand the memory limit issue related to thumbnails now thanks to the link. Thanks, Alex! Unfortunately I’m still having the same issue. My web host has confirmed that php.ini sets my memory limit. It is set to 64MB as noted in my original post. They don’t otherwise restrict the memory limit.

It is curious to me that when I attempt to upload an image via: ‘Gallery > Add Gallery > Upload Images’ there is a note under the ‘Choose Gallery’ pull-down menu that says ‘Note : The upload limit on your server is 2MByte ‘.

Also after attempting to upload an image of 1.32 MB (2272×1704) the image uploads successfully, but the thumbnail fails to create and gives the following error: img_3877.jpg (Error : Exceed Memory limit. Require : 35.2 MByte).

I’m also wondering if the php.ini script needs to be in a directory other than my web root?

Any more help would be much appreciated.

willb. You rock! This fixed things for me. Blessings on you for posting this. If you’re having this problem and you’ve found this post give this fix a go.

Thanks for the reply. Well taken. I have accessed from the internet and the local network, but not at the same time. I enable the directives in /etc/hosts when I want to work locally.

So that said, any thoughts about this situation?

I’m having the same issue as Claudio. I’ve posted my own requests for help. As of yet I’ve not gotten any responses to this question. Could someone please give us a hand with this? Thanks so much!

Sorry, everything is in order regarding your questions. I didn’t have to change a thing. I had followed the directions carefully, I had no plug-ins activated, and I was using the default theme. The 2 URL pointers have always been set to ‘https://mydomain.com&#8217;.

Yes, everything seems to be in order. Followed the instructions, deactivated plugins, theme is WordPress Default 1.6.
