Jak naprawiono limit własnych pozycji menu w WordPress?

Kilka dni temu jeden z naszych użytkowników zgłosił nietypowy problem. Problem polegał na tym, że osiągał on limit własnych pozycji menu. Wszystko, co zapisywał po osiągnięciu limitu pozycji menu, nie zapisywało się w ogóle. Nigdy nie słyszeliśmy o tym problemie, więc postanowiliśmy wypróbować go na naszej lokalnej instalacji. Utworzyliśmy ponad 200 pozycji menu i zapisaliśmy je. Wszystko działało jak należy. Przenieśliśmy 100 pozycji do rozwijanego menu i zapisało się bez problemu. W tym momencie wiedzieliśmy, że ma to coś wspólnego z serwerem. Po dalszych poszukiwaniach okazało się, że wiele innych osób miało ten sam problem. Kopiąc nieco głębiej, znaleźliśmy zgłoszenie trac(#14134), które podkreślało ten problem. Po przeczytaniu bardzo długiego zgłoszenia trac, wydaje się, że problem nie został jeszcze naprawiony, ale istnieje poprawka dla tych, którzy mają ten problem. W tym artykule pokażemy, jak poprawić limit własnych pozycji menu w WordPress.

Aby poprawić ten problem, musisz edytować swój plik PHP.ini. Jeśli korzystasz z serwera dedykowanego lub VPS z dostępem root, to powinieneś już wiedzieć, o czym mówimy. Jeśli korzystasz z hostingu współdzielonego lub nie wiesz, gdzie znajduje się plik PHP.ini, poproś dostawcę hostingu, aby zrobił to za ciebie.

Musisz poprosić go o ustawienie następujących wartości w konfiguracji PHP.ini:

suhosin.post.max_vars = 5000
suhosin.request.max_vars = 5000

.

Inny użytkownik „ronnieg” opublikował obejście, które ma dla swojej dużej (450+ stron i rośnie) witryny nieruchomości i menu. Możesz przeczytać jego odpowiedź. (Uwaga: nie wypróbowaliśmy tego rozwiązania)

Wyjaśnienie problemu

Problem ten nie jest całkowicie związany z WordPressem, ponieważ różni ludzie widzą różne limity (niektórzy twierdzą, że 16, inni twierdzą, że 50, a jak już wiesz, osiągnęliśmy nawet 200 bez żadnych ograniczeń). Teoretycznie WordPress nie ogranicza liczby menu, które można mieć. Twój serwer WWW jest. Istnieją ograniczenia Suhosin dotyczące zmiennych POST max, które ograniczają dużą liczbę zapisywanych wpisów. Nacin odpowiedział w zgłoszeniu trac, że NIE jest to błąd, a raczej ulepszenie. Zespół rdzeni musi znaleźć sposób na obejście ograniczeń serwera i wymyślić lepszy sposób zapisywania pozycji menu, tak aby niezależnie od konfiguracji twojego serwera nie widziałeś żadnych własnych limitów menu. Łatwiej powiedzieć niż zrobić :)

WordPress jest projektem open-source (dobrowolnym), a zespół rdzeni robi wszystko, co w jego mocy, aby ulepszać go każdego dnia. Zostanie to naprawione, ale harmonogram nie jest jeszcze określony, ponieważ mówi „Przyszłe wydania”.

Jeśli wypróbowałeś coś innego, co poprawiło ten problem, daj nam znać w komentarzach. Dzięki temu inni będą mogli poprawić swój problem, dopóki zespół rdzeni nie znajdzie rozwiązania.

    Hey! I am unsing shared hosting Hosting. That’s why I don’t have root access for editing the phpi.ni file. How can I solve the problem?

      • Satya

        I’ve access to the PHP.ini file and updated as you have mentioned but it’s not working.

        I’m not sure why what should I do?

  2. Maheshwaran

    Hi

    Appearance -> Menu ->while click-> redirecting to -> 404 page

    I have added some Main menus and Categories in my website. after some time i couldn’t open menu to modify or delete anything. my website is redirecting to 404 page. I tried many codes but nothing works. Please assist me

  3. Toni

    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!

  4. Nush

    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.

  5. Anton

    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.

    • Teodoz

      Thank you Anton! The process with the .htaccess file saved my website! TY

  6. Ajay Damraliya

    Thanks bro :) i was facing the same problem now its fixed.

  7. Ramachandran

    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,
    -Rams

    • Ramachandran

      I set up wordPress Multisite using Multidomain SSL.

  8. Dann

    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

  9. sdkmendis

    Awesome. I have same issue prolong times without clue. Ask so many peoples . Just today I fixed my problem. hostGator no need to call centre representative. We can do it our own. Realy help full No words to thanx

  10. Rajit

    What is the max limit we can set for this? I seem to have exhausted the 5000 limit as well.

    • Rajit

      In fact I have exhausted 8000 limit

  11. Renee

    Mahalo nui loa (thank you very much)!

    This worked for a client’s site that is at Bluehost, shared hosting:
    1. Cpanel > File Manager
    2. public_html > wp-admin
    3. Click “New File” > name it php.ini (if you don’t have this file already)
    4. Click php.ini > click “edit” > click “edit” again
    5. Paste: max_input_vars=5000; > Save > DONE

        I tried,

        in .htaccess file:
        php_value max_input_vars 5000

        in php.ini file:
        max_input_vars=5000;
        upload_max_filesize = 70M;
        post_max_size = 128M;
        upload_tmp_dir = 70M;
        max_input_vars = 3000;
        memory_limit = 256M;

        in .user.ini file:
        max_input_vars=3000;

        and also test by placing php.ini & .user.ini in wp-admin and out of wp-admin, nothing works for me,

        by adding in .htaccess wp admin page shows blank (white).
        my hosting is

        any help appriciated. TIA

  12. Lou Comunale

    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.

      • 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) .

    • Ken

      This solution was the only one that worked on 1and1 hosting platform:

      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

      • Hunor

        Thank you! This worked for me as well (though it is not hosted by goDaddy).

    • Thank you

      Thank you, this worked for me.

    • Anjan Phukan

      Lou, it worked for me. Thank you so much.

    • Brock Reinhart

      Lou, that first glance (and first test) that seems to have worked perfectly– thank you!

      Will update if I run into any more issues.

  13. Jay Patal

  16. WajhuAllah Arif Hussain

    On Ubuntu VPS i was able to fix it by uncommenting and setting higher values as below.

    max_input_nesting_levels = 500
    max_input_vars = 5000

    But anyways thanks as it provided a way towards the solution

    • Sumon

      Thanks, that worked for me too.

    • tanveer

      i love u man!
      your this solution also solved another problem of mine! the problem was

      „After saving the menu on the “Edit Menu” tab the “Menu Settings -> Theme Location” would not retain the check and on the “Manage Locations” tab the menu location would be dropped.”

    • Jony

      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?

      BR,

  17. Alejandro

    Thanks a lot, it wordked for my very long menu!! :D

  18. Mino Taur

    HostGator Friends – Same Issue & This Solved it:

    1. Cpanel > File Manager

    2. public_html > wp-admin

    3. Click „New File” > name it php.ini (if you don’t have this file already)

    4. Click php.ini > click „edit” > click „edit” again

    5. Paste: max_input_vars=5000; > Save > DONE

    • Rajit

      Hi,

      My site is hosted on godaddy. I created php.ini in wp-admin and pasted the one line max_input_vars=5000;

      Still couldn’t add more menus.

    • Sangam KR

      Thanks for the suggestions. I followed your suggestion and added the php.ini file with max_input_vars=5000; and it solved my problem. Thanks once again

    • Lori

      1 – Make a text file
      2 – Put this in there ” max_input_vars=5000; ” (without the quotes
      3 – Save as php.ini
      4 – FTP into the public_html > wp-admin

      PERFECT
      Thank you!!!

    • Anita

      Thank You, You saved my site! :-) This worked for me perfectly!

    • Hello Mino

      Same problem on my website

      My site hosted on HostGator. I added file php.ini in /wp-admin but this is not working for me. Please help me.

  19. 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.

  20. bedir

    ALEX you are hero man. I have read many things for solution. THANKS

  21. Muhammad Khizer Khan

    Thank you so much Alex, Really thankful to you.

  22. vijay lathiya

    Thanks for tips

    after increasing max_input_vars in php.ini its working.

  23. 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.

  24. Gadget

    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

    • Netman

      Issue was solved with php.ini file in wp-admin folder with following line on HostGator shared hosting account.

      max_input_vars = 9000;

      Thanks

  25. Alex

    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;
    memory_limit = 256M;

    • Jay

      This worked for me, so easy to do too.

      Thank You!

    • JoAnne

      THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I have been trying to find a solution to fix this for HOURS!!! This did it! Thanks!

    • AMGil

      Thank you Alex, I tried so many solutions found online and this was the only one that worked. Lifesaver!!

    • Deborah

      I can’t access any of the wordpress edit after I do this, should I erase the other php.ini file?

    • prateek rathore

      Thanks Alex,
      I have mad lots of googling for the issue and finally i got the solution you provided. :)

    • Kimberly Potts

      I FINALLY have a solution. After trying all of the suggestions, the tech at Host Gator added the max_input_vars=5000; to the root directory. BINGO! It works now. :))

  26. Jeffrey de Jongh

    Hi Thanks for this great tip! I had the same issue with UberMenu. Now I’ve added php_value max_input_vars 5000 to my .htaccess file and it solved the problem.

  27. Alanna

    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.

  28. Bhavin

    Thank you so much Mat.This worked Perfect…

  29. Matt

    Matt’s suggestion worked for me too, as I do not run suhosin.

    added:
    max_input_vars = 5000
    to my php.ini file

    • valente

      Hello, I placed a Php.ini file in wp-admin with max_input_vars = 5000
      but it did not work, does this php file need to be in another directory as well?
      thank you

  30. Bart

    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?

    • 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.

  31. Zek

    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!

  32. Larry

    I am in same situation as Mat Lipe. I was having problems because my server does not have suhosin installed. I was able to fix the problem by adding the directive that Mat posted to my php.ini file. Thanks.

  33. Selma

    I just hit the same problem and after days of emailing back and forth with the we hosting support, it’s finally been resolved!

    They did the following changes:

    They added max_input_vars = 5000 in php.ini

    That’s it, and now it works like a charm and I’m adding pages to my hearts content.

    • Piyush

      Hi SELMA,

      Your Solution is work for Me

      Thanks!!!!!!!!!!

      Piyush

  34. Mat Lipe

    Hello,

    My server is not running suhosin so I was able to fix this issue by adding this to my php.ini file and restarting my server.

    max_input_vars = 5000

    Hope this helps anyone else out there with the same issue

    • Elyashiv

      Excellent!! work for me/
      Thanks!!

    • Luyen Dao

      Thanks Mat! I was going nuts trying to add suhosin then realized i don’t even have it setup!

    • Michael

      Wow! Thank you so much Matt. This works awesome!!!

  35. Dale

    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.
