     You can ask your hosting provider to do that for you.

   I ran into the same problem…but I’m on localhost…so have nobody to ask for help! (Windows 10/XAMPP/WP4.8). New to WP, don’t even know where to find php.ini! My « quick fix » was to remove some less important sub-menu items. But I want to put them all back. Checked out memory-bump mentioned above, but its old. Might not work on WP4.8. Not worth the risk!

   Hi.

   Thank you for the great information. I finally solved the issue on the GoDaddy hosting by creating a ph5.ini file in the Webroot with the following information:

   memory_limit = 256M;
   max_execution_time = 300;
   max_input_vars = 3000;

   solved problem after customer service reset the database, something I could not do. Hope this helps.

   Hi, thank you for this

   I run and had this problem. I had long menu and some day it decreased to 50 lines only. Theme support sent to this topic. I’d tried all options, but only one works for me even with out contacting with hosting support.

   I’ve added « php_value max_input_vars 5000 » (without quotes) to my .htaccess file before « #end of wordpress » line and it solved the problem.

   Hi Team,

   I am using Hostgator with Multidomain SSL.

   I checked the settings and don’t know where and how to do.

   I added php.ini file with the code max_input_vars=9000; and still I am not able to add menu items on the main menu.

   Anyone help me. Much appreciated.

   Best regards,

   I’m having this issue right now, I contacted the hosts whom say they can’t / won’t increase to 5000 vars because it is a shared server, is there any other solution? is it possible to have two navigation menu’s on the same page, would this solve the problem, or would it simply continue.

   Thanks in advance, any help would be much appreciated

    I use GoDaddy and the php.ini fix did not work at all for me. Godaddy doesn’t even recognize that page or code as valid.

    Getting help from the Godaddy people they provided me a workaround.

    I created a page in my html folder .user.ini (dot-user-dot-ini). On that page I added the code:

    max_input_vars = 3000

    Seems to work so far.

    • Akut Wibowo

      created a page in my html folder .user.ini (dot-user-dot-ini) -> did you mean create a FILE in your PUBLIC_HTML folder?

      Please confirm as I have same problem here in godaddy server also.
      And I can’t contacted them for a weeks.

      I dont know why it is so hard to contact godaddy.

      Répondre

      • Gabriel

        Akut I also use Godaddy.

        I found my php.ini file in file manager – public_html folder NOT in the php.admin nor did I have to create the php.ini file.

        Godaddy seems to think it is a WP issue, and I got the run around on that particular issue.

        They directed me to increase my file size limit. (Not the same fix) .

      Hi man,
      I’m runing wordpress multisite and i’have some problem with adding more custom fields to my site, i tried everything that didn’t help and i saw your answer about increasing the max_input_nesting_levels = 500. I’m trying to increase that value on VPS with Ubuntu 16.04 in the PHP.Ini file but with no success. the info.php still shows max_input_nesting_levels = 64. I appreciate if you can tell me how did you increase this value, whether it was through PHP.ini file or through htaccess file?

20. Kimberly Potts

    I’m having this issue as well. I was directed to this site by a tech at Studio Press. I have a shared hosting account with Host Gator. They have upped my max_input_vars to 7000, because I wasn’t getting anywhere with 3000 or 5000. I did create a php.ini with your recommendations in my wp-admin. Still no luck. Do I need to delete the php.ini in my public folder, since I created one in the wp-admin? I’m trying so hard to resolve this. Many thanks.

24. gezginrocker

    Because I’m on shared hosting, putting the php.ini on root folder didn’t work for me. But putting it in wp-admin folder worked. I think this is because nav-menus.php file is in wp-admin folder.

    Hi People, … yes I too came up against this menu issue/problem … and may I say YIKES!!! At somewhere between the 50 and 100 page mark, the last item I put on the menu was being kicked off, and/or falling off the main menu navigation! What?!!!

    Noobs, and other geeks alike, know this about that (problem) … and I am only speaking for my own case, though I do so in the hope that someone who experiences the same nightmare may benefit … so here we go.

    With ‘shared hosting’ using HostGator … there will be no ‘suhosin’ which is apparently a patch/program etcetera for scripting errors with php designed to protect ‘servers’ according to a HostGator Rep, … now, notwithstanding this detail, we continue … what was important in my case, … that I finally got my HostGator person, person #3 to understand, through all my babble about the problem, was, the part about the ‘max_input_vars = 3000’.

    My HostGator Rep put me on hold, investigated the issue, and determined that the ‘max_input_vars = 3000’ had to be put in the php.ini file, … that only HostGator has access to, … not the php.ini file that is in my/our ‘home’ or ‘root’ directory, that I/we all have access to, via our accounts with HostGator or other hosting providers, by using the CPanel as we often call this access point.

    This php.ini file is, in no way accessible via the internet by me, or us, as account holders with hosting account access, capiche? Good, and good to know.

    Now, what I did, was take what Alex, right below this post said to do, and I put these lines of text/code into a php.ini file that I then put in my public_html file area, inside of my ‘wp-admin’ folder, for the domain I was working with. For a time, I thought that this ‘fix’ was working, then today, I was adding more pages and ‘oh joy’ the main menu navigation items were falling off the line, crikey!!

    Back into the problem I went, re- reviewed this whole post and the ‘Coretrac Ticket’ thread, which is a tad over my head, but still, I was diligent and determined. And then back into the breach with the HostGator people for pow-wow #2, completed that call and had to go back in, with person #3 who was the charm.

    Lastly, what I learned is that, what the ‘max_input_vars = 3000’ is referring to is how many pages your installation/domain/WordPress can have, the ‘3000’ means pages. My HostGator Rep plugged in 5000 pages.

    So, I added two new test pages on the spot with him still on the phone and we report ‘joy’! Yay! I too should now be able to add pages to my heart’s content! May you also experience WordPress JOY!

    Cheers,
    Gadget

    Create a php.ini file but not in root! ( public_html )
    in « wp-admin » folder then add:

    max_input_vars = 3000;

    I also have :
    upload_max_filesize = 70M;
    post_max_size = 128M;
    upload_tmp_dir = 70M;
    max_input_vars = 3000;

    I’ve tried a few things without any luck. I had my host make these PHP config changes. I also activated the Memory Bump plugin and then removed it as suggested by some others.

    My theme (Twenty Ten) supports only one menu. I am able to create another menu and make changes there without a problem. I have a live site so I’m a little limited in terms of the amount of experimenting I can do.

    Any other ideas? I’ll try anything at this point.

    I have the same problem, and the Memory Bump Plugin didn’t solve it.

    I contacted my hosting provider, and they said I don’t yet have a php.ini file and that I have to create it, or WP has to create it for me……

    How do I do this?

    Répondre

    • WPBeginner Support

      Bart if your webserver is running php scripts, then it certainly has a php.ini file which your web host can configure if they want to.

    Seems that a simple fix would be for the WP ajax functionality to evaluate the number of items in the list and break it into multiple sequential requests instead of one big request.

    It’s weird to me that the wordpress team didn’t think of this ahead of time but I guess the platform is so robust that they simply have too much on their plate. I may end up doing it myself, but of course I’ll have to do it in a way that won’t get overwritten by future updates. What a pain!

    Thanks for this.

    I experienced this quite a while back and thought it had something to do with the memory allocation.

    I eventually was able to add more menus after activating the Memory Bump Plugin ( http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/memory-bump/ ) from WordPressdotorg

    I deactivated the plugin afterwards.

    Was quick and easy without messing with any code.
