WP File Upload Size

Solution

You might run into problems when trying to import large CVS files as some hosts do limit the max file upload size to 2mb by default.

Here's one way of overcoming that limit.

Logon to CPANEL and open FILE MANAGER.

Navigate to: WP-ADMIN folder and create a new text file called: php.ini

Copy/paste the following lines into the file and save it:

upload_max_filesize = 64M

post_max_size = 64M

memory_limit = 3000M

file_uploads = On

max_execution_time = 900

Now login to your Wordpress Dashboard and go to: MEDIA -> ADD NEW

Check that the file size limit has increased to 64mb.
