Increase the Maximum File Upload Size[/caption]By default the WordPress gives the uploading limit around 2 mp size. This does not nowadays, because even a minute movie with HD takes much heavy size file. In this post, I will give you some tricks to increase the maximum file upload size in WordPress.
Step 1: Take your theme functions.php file
Just add the following code into that,
@ini_set( 'upload_max_size' , '64M' );
@ini_set( 'post_max_size', '64M');
@ini_set( 'max_execution_time', '300' );
Step 2: Create or Edit php.ini settings
In your root folder, create (If you do not have) a new file called php.ini, add the following code
upload_max_filesize = 64M
post_max_size = 64M
max_execution_time = 300
Step 3: Do some in .htaccess
add the following in your root .htaccess file
php_value upload_max_filesize 64M
php_value post_max_size 64M
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value max_input_time 300
Notes:-
If you are in a shared hosting this techniques will not work, In that case you would have to contact your hosting provider to increase the size limit.
