So I have wordpress plugin that sets my max upload file size and currently it is set to 536mb. (which should be more then enough) But still when I try to upload 3,3 mb .xml file I get an error:
The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini.
When trying to Upload
I had the same problem. I tried editing the wp-config.php file and added:
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '32M');
edited the .htaccess and added:
php_value upload_max_filesize 32M
php_value post_max_size 32M
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value max_input_time 300
none of the above seemed to work for me. I also tried locating the php.ini file on my directory but couldn't find it.
I created my php.ini file and added:
php_value upload_max_filesize 64M
php_value post_max_size 32M
still nothing changed.
MY SOLUTION
I went back to my cPanel home page and located the MultiPHP INI Editor under the SOFTWARE tab, selected my domain name from the dropdown menu and opened its PHP configuration, scrolled down to the bottom and located the upload_max_filesize directive and changed it from 2MB to the size i want.
That solved my problem. Hope it works for you as well
Open the php.ini file on your hosting server (Typically located somewhere like:
/usr/bin/php5/bin/php.ini in Linux) and adjust the following lines:
; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = 536M
; Must be greater than or equal to upload_max_filesize
post_max_size = 536M

I am unable to upload a new theme in wordpress.The maximum limit showing right now is 10 mb. What changes should I make in CPanel. I have created a new file in Public_html named php.ini.
and pasted these lines.
upload_max_filesize = 256MB
post_max_size = 32M
memory_limit = 32M
max_execution_time = 300
1: Theme Functions File
There are cases where we have seen that just by adding the following code in theme’s functions.php file, you can increase the upload size:
#ini_set( 'upload_max_size' , '64M' );
#ini_set( 'post_max_size', '64M');
#ini_set( 'max_execution_time', '300' );
2. Create or Edit an existing PHP.INI file
For this method you will need to access your WordPress site’s root folder by using FTP or File Manager app in your hosting account’s cPanel dashboard.
In most cases if you are on a shared host, then you will not see a php.ini file in your directory. If you do not see one, then create a file called php.ini and upload it in the root folder. In that file add the following code:
upload_max_filesize = 64M
post_max_size = 64M
max_execution_time = 300
This method is reported to work for many users. Remember if 64 doesn’t work, then try 10MB (sometimes that work).
3. htaccess Method
Some people have tried using the .htaccess method where by modifying the .htaccess file in the root directory, you can increase the maximum upload size in WordPress. Edit the .htaccess file in your WordPress site’s root folder and add the following code:
php_value upload_max_filesize 64M
php_value post_max_size 64M
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value max_input_time 300
Using .htaccess file in wordpress. You can define below lines,
Open it .htaccess in folder and added the following into a newline at the end of the file.
php_value memory_limit 256
php_value upload_max_filesize 64M
php_value post_max_size 64M
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value max_input_time 1000
Save your changes and overwrite the .htaccess file.
Get More info, you can follow the link,
For upload file size: https://www.bitcatcha.com/blog/increase-maximum-upload-file-size-in-wordpress/
For Increase Memory Limit size :https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/increase-memory-limit/
you can create php.ini file in wp_admin folder in root wordpress directory
open php.ini and override these values
1- upload max size
2- post max size
3- max execution time
now php.ini file looks like that
upload_max_filesize = 128M
post_max_size = 128M
max_execution_time = 180
My problem is that when I check to wp-admin/media-new.php I see Maximum upload file size: 8 MB. Now I change the php.ini located at /usr/lib/php.ini I change the upload_max_filesize to 64M and post_max_size 64M. Then when I checked back to wp-admin/media-new.php it is now 'Maximum upload file size: 15M' it should be 64M
I even try following this http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-increase-the-maximum-file-upload-size-in-wordpress/ but it doesn't help it. it looks like it is limited to 15M? I try to change the post_max_size to 14M then it reads now on wp-admin/media-new.php to 'Maximum upload file size: 14M' it looks like it only limits to 15M. I restarted the apache but still it won't work and it only shows 15M
I checked the phpinfo() and the file loaded is correct which is /usr/lib/php.ini
Is there any settings in wordpress that is limiting the upload file size except on the network setting? no right? What could be the problem?
I Fixed my issues. Here are what I've learned:
1) Make sure there are no conflict with your php.ini.. I checked my phpinfo() and the file loaded is /usr/local/lib/php.ini however there is php.ini placed in the wp-admin/ folder so I deleted it and this cause overriding the setting.
2) If you are running multisite make sure that 'Max upload file size' option in wp-admin/network/settings.php is correct based on your desire cause this will reflect in the main site.
You can use this cod ein .htaccess file.
<IfModule mod_php5.c>
php_value post_max_size 128M
php_value upload_max_filesize 128M
php_value memory_limit 500M
</IfModule>
Change file size as your requirement.
I hope this will work for you.
I wanted to increase the file upload size limit in wordpress without editing php.ini
So I tried adding .htaccess to the wp-content/uploads directory with rules like these:
php_value upload_max_filesize 10M
php_value post_max_size 20M
php_value memory_limit 32M
This doesn't work in wp-content/uploads, the upload max is still 2MB
This does work if I put this in the websites .htaccess file though.
Why won't this work if I just put the htaccess in the uploads directory? Are there any risks in increasing the upload size for the entire site?
.htaccess won't work unless the PHP script handling the upload exists at wp-content/uploads/ (which it does not). Placing it in that folder does not have the result you may expect because it only impacts scripts located in that folder.
You might try placing .htaccess file into /wp-admin/ which will change upload settings for all files handled inside the admin PHP scripts.
Unclear from your post where else users may be uploading files... are you using upload forms in your public-facing website? If so, you may not want to update the settings server-wide. If not, I see no big risks in making the change.
For increase PHP's file upload limit.
In php.ini file, change the parameter to whatever size you need
(example: )
upload_max_filesize = 32M
...
Simply create blank text file. Save As php.ini
Inside the text file copy-paste the following:
upload_max_filesize = 32M
post_max_size = 32M
============================
Unable to access root directory , than
add this to top of wp-config.php
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '64M');
To Increase the Maximum file size upload in wordpress
find the php.ini location
#find / -iname php.ini
Get into the folder By default it is 2M we can incerase by setting value to the parameter
#vim php.ini
upload_max_filesize = <Userdefined size> (For eg 20M)
post_max_size = <Userdefined size >
Then if you are using php7.0 restart php7.0-fpm service
#systemctl reload php7.0-fpm.service
If .htaccess not change value and also php.ini not change values, search for .user.ini file in root folder server and search for upload_max_filesize and post_max_size values and replace them.
For increasing PHP's file upload limit.
Go to wordpress root directory and open .htaccess file. In my case it was found in /var/www/html
php_value upload_max_filesize 128M
php_value post_max_size 128M
php_value memory_limit 256M
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value max_input_time 300
The above code increased my file upload limit to 128 MB in wordpress
2021:
Access /etc/php/8.0/apache2/php.ini
Increase the value of post_max_size. The default value is 8M.
Restart the server with sudo service apache2 restart
Try to add this to functions.php of your theme
#ini_set( 'upload_max_size' , '10M' );
#ini_set( 'post_max_size', '20M');
#ini_set( 'memory_limit', '32M' );
I've got an alert message when trying to upload very large file in php. When I uploaded 53 MB file and 35% upload process complete, i got an alert message "html5: the upload task is interrupted". I don't know what does that mean. Can anyone help me out. Thank you.
Method # 1: Edit php.ini
You need to set the value of upload_max_filesize and post_max_size in your php.ini :
; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = 40M
; Must be greater than or equal to upload_max_filesize
post_max_size = 40M
Save and close the file. Restart apache or lighttpd web server:
Method #2: Edit .htaccess
Edit .htaccess file in your root directory. This is useful when you do not have access to php.ini file. In this example, /home/httpd/html is considered as root directory (you can also create .htaccess file locally and than upload it using ftp / sftp / scp client):
Append / modify setting as follows:
php_value upload_max_filesize 10M
php_value post_max_size 20M
php_value memory_limit 32M

I used uplaodify plugin to upload music files. Everyting is okay in my local
uploadify.php file is in public_html/uploadify directory
i want to increment my upload file size limit to 10 MB
i tried to put
php.ini file in public_html
post_max_size = 500M
upload_max_filesize = 500M
max_execution_time = 900;
max_input_time 900
and I am looking my phpinfo() thats good
but ı cannot upload bigger than 2MB
And i tried to put same php.ini in public_html/uploadify
Now I can upload file which size 2.5 MB , but no upper;
And
ini_set('upload_max_size','10M');
ini_set('post_max_size','10M');
ini_set('max_execution_time','900');
lines is in the my index.php and uploadify.php
What should I do increment my file upload size limit
EDIT
I look $_FILES[..]['error'], and its 7
UPLOAD_ERR_CANT_WRITE
Value: 7; Failed to write file to disk. Introduced in PHP 5.1.0.
But I can upload file which smaller than 2.5 MB
Edit the .htaccess file in the root folder and add these values:
RewriteEngine On
php_value post_max_size 1000M
php_value upload_max_filesize 1000M
php_value max_execution_time 6000000
You can edit it to suit your needs. 1000M = 1GB, so edit accordingly. Do note that your host will need to allow PHP edits.
You cannot override upload limits from within a script using ini_set - the upload will have completed (or been aborted) using the original settings long before PHP fires up and processes the ini_sets.
You can't just litter php.ini files around your system either - php doesn't load random .ini files it finds lying around. It only loads them from specific locations. If PHP hasn't been told to load one from the uploadify directory, you'll have to use a .htaccess and php_value directives.
Hello I had the similar issue while uploading a theme on wordpress on localhost. After hours of research I was able to put following 3 lines in my php.ini and restarted the apache and it worked. I thought this will help others.
This will go in file upload section of ini
upload_max_filesize = 800M
post_max_size = 800M
max_file_uploads = 800M
