Uploading WP theme error, filesize max

10 replies
Hi Warriors,

I know it's a simple problem, But as a WP beginner i cannot find a solution.
I get this error when uploading the theme:
"The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini"

I've been reading Google for solutions, Watched Youtube videos, tried bunch of offered solutions, still facing the same problem..

my uploading max appears as "0 B"


Thanks in advance.
Daniel

    Contact your web host's support staff for help if the other solutions aren't working.

    First double check the zip file you downloaded and see If there's another zip file with the WP theme. Sometimes theme developers include a bunch of extra stuff in the download file.

    If that doesn't work then do like Mark said, contact the host and have them increase your upload file size.

      Go to your host control panel and look for the php.ini file, increase upload_max_filesize.

    A lot of hosts are utilizing CloudLinux. If your host is using CloudLinux there's no need to modify/create php.ini files but instead, you can change the upload limit and other limitations from within the PHP Version Selector but choosing a different PHP version (if using the native) and then clicking the link to "switch to php options". From there, you can modify the values needed.

    Note: this is only for use with a host using CloudLinux and some variables cannot exceed the global settings placed by the host.

    open your c-panel and php.ini file then
    increase this value
    upload_max_filesize = 10M
    post_max_size = 10M
    i hope your problem solve
