I am using cPanel of my website to increase maximum upload file size for wordpress media uploads. I have used the codes(found out from google) for this purpose wp-config.php, .htaccess but nothing is working. In my cPanel, there is no service for php configuration editor under software / services section or anywhere else. Please help what should I do?
My .htaccess shows this code:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
I tried by placing the code:
php_value upload_max_filesize 20M
php_value post_max_size 20M
inside and outside # blocks, it gives 500 error rather.
On cpanel -> software and services -> Select PHP Version.
Choose a PHP version which not the native one (I recommend php 5.6 or last one) and you will have / see a new link "Switch To PHP Settings", click it, in PHP Settings you can set upload_max_filesize in last line , clicking on value ( default is 2M ) , and you got a dropbox with values that you can set to upload_max_filesize, and click save .
Unfortunately, this is something you will have to ask you provider to do.
If your the owner of the server and can login to WHM it's under:
Tweak Settings => PHP Settings => Maximum Upload Size
Newer version have it listed under:
Home => Service Configuration => PHP Configuration Editor => Tweak Settings => PHP
We can increase maximum upload file size for WordPress media uploads in 3 different ways.
That's are
- .htaccess way
- PHP.INI file method
- Theme’s Functions.php File
For .htaccess way, add following code,
php_value upload_max_filesize 1024M
php_value post_max_size 1024M
php_value max_execution_time 1000
php_value max_input_time 1000
for PHP.INI file method, add following code,
upload_max_filesize = 1024M
post_max_size = 1024M
max_execution_time = 1000
for Theme’s Functions.php File, add following code,
@ini_set( ‘upload_max_size’ , ’1024M’ );
@ini_set( ‘post_max_size’, ’1024M’);
@ini_set( ‘max_execution_time’, ’1000′ );
On CPanel 64.0.40 (I didn't try any other version): Go in "Software" then "Select PHP Version" then "Switch To PHP Options" then upload_max_filesize => click on the value and select the one you prefer :) It's super hidden for such a critical option...
I have found the answer and solution to this problem. Before, I did not know that php.ini resides where in wordpress files. Now I have found that file in wp-admin directory where I placed the code
post_max_size 33M
upload_max_filesize 32M
then it worked. It increases the upload file size for my worpdress website. But, it is the same 2M as was before on cPanel.
Since there is no php.ini file in your /public_html directory......create a new file as phpinfo.php in /public_html directory
-Type this code in phpinfo.php and save it:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
-Then type yourdomain.com/phpinfo.php...you will see all the details of your configuration
-To edit that config, create another file as php.ini in /public_html directory and paste this code:
memory_limit=512M
post_max_size=200M
upload_max_filesize=200M
-And then refresh yourdomain.com/phpinfo.php and see the changes,it will be done.
In my case it was wp-admin/.user.ini:
post_max_size = 33M
upload_max_filesize = 32M
New Cpanel Settings on a Godaddy
From Cpanel go to:
- Software
- Select PHP version
- Click "Switch To PHP Options" located on upper right hand corner
Increase post max size and upload max file size, save and your done.
The solution is to create the php.ini file under your root directory. If the site is the wordpress installation then create the php.ini under your/path/to/wordpress/wp-admin/php.ini and add the following line of codes
[PHP]
post_max_size=120M
upload_max_filesize=132M
Login to your WHM panel if you have access to
Then go to Software -> MultiPHP INI Editor
Then select the php version from the dropdown, then scroll down for the upload_max_filesize which will be 2M by default, now increase it according to your need.
Also enable the file_uploads for HTTP file uploads for convenience.
If you don't have access to WHM, then follow the .htaccess method.
php.ini settings should be like given below, if the '=' symbol is not put between the setting and value, it doesn't work
post_max_size = 100M
upload_max_filesize = 100M
You should not replace the text entirely. Add the text after the "# END WordPress".
