Upload limit with php.ini not Wordpress

I suppose you have a php hosting and with cpanel access to it, the first I would try would be to put a php file.ini in / public_html with the following content:

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; File Uploads ;
; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

; Whether to allow HTTP file uploads.
file_uploads = On

; Temporary directory for HTTP uploaded files (will use system default if not
; specified).
;upload_tmp_dir =

; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = 128M 

Or else put your php.ini for us to take a look.

Go to your wp-config.php and add the line below

ini_set("upload_max_filesize","128M"); // essa linha serve para alterar o valor do upload_max_filesize.

For those who are going through the same problem, follow the Peter who commented on the answer.

If you tried to put the file php.ini in the root, or in the folder /public_html and still did not work and you use the server of Locaweb.

To try to change the upload values, create the php.ini file inside the wp-admin WordPress folder (it worked with me).

There is usually a file php.ini template in the user root in the case of Locaweb , copy the contents of it and place inside the indicated folder and change the following lines:

upload_max_filesize = 50M post_max_size = 50M

The number 50m can be that of your need. If your problem was another and you managed to solve, post and let the community know.

Just add this line:

php_value upload_max_filesize 256M

At the end of the file .htaccess

Just add this line:

Php_value upload_max_filesize 256M At the end of the file .htaccess

Remembering that it is M instead of MB or K instead of KB!
