Våra läsare ber oss ofta att hjälpa dem att lösa issues relaterade till limits för filuppladdning. Denna enkla website-inställning kan ha oväntade effekter på din site.
Till exempel kan en låg limit för filuppladdningsstorlek ibland hindra you från att ladda upp filer med media uppladdaren eller installera större WordPress plugins och themes. Detta kan vara mycket frustrerande, särskilt när du inte är säker på hur du ändrar limiten.
I den här artikeln visar vi dig hur du enkelt kan öka den maximala storleken på filuppladdare i WordPress för att fixa dessa issues.
Varför öka den maximala storleken för filuppladdning i WordPress?
Din hosting provider för WordPress kommer att ange en standard för maximal storlek för upload av filer när du registrerar dig och installerar WordPress. Din hosting provider definierar denna limit, och den varierar vanligtvis från 2 MB till 500 MB.
För de flesta WordPress website ägare kommer denna limit att vara mer än tillräckligt.
Det finns dock tillfällen då du måste höja denna limit så att du inte runar in i upload errors.
Till exempel:
- You run a photography website and need to upload large images.
- Din portfölj med design eller fotografier har stora images.
- Du vill installera ett större WordPress theme eller plugin.
- You want to sell digital products like eBooks, photos, videos, and more.
- You update content regelbundet och add to ljud, foton och annat som ligger utanför den nuvarande limiten.
Med detta sagt, låt oss visa dig hur du kan öka den maximala storleken på filuppladdare på din WordPress site.
Note: Tänk på att om du displayed många stora filer på din website kan det allvarligt sakta ner dess hastighet och prestanda. Därför rekommenderar vi normalt att du aldrig uppladdar videoklipp till WordPress.
Eftersom de flesta användare har olika WordPress inställningar för webbhotell, kommer vi att täcka följande:
- How to Check Your Maximum File Upload Size Limit in WordPress
- Method 1: Contact Your WordPress Hosting Provider
- Method 2: Create or Edit an Existing php.ini file
- Method 3: Add Code to Your WordPress Theme functions.php File
- Method 4: Add Code to Your .htaccess File
- Method 5: Use a WordPress Plugin to Increase File Upload Size
Video Tutorial
Om du föredrar skriftliga instruktioner är det bara att fortsätta läsa.
Så här kontrollerar du din limit för maximal storlek på filuppladdning i WordPress
WordPress visar automatiskt limiten för maximal filuppladdningsstorlek när du laddar upp images eller andra media.
För att kontrollera detta, gå bara till Media ” Add New i din WordPress adminpanel, och du kommer att se den maximala filuppladdningsstorlekslimiten för din WordPress site.
Nu när du vet hur du hittar storlekslimiten ska vi visa dig hur du ökar den maximala storleken för upload i WordPress.
Metod 1: Kontakta din hosting provider för WordPress
Ett av de enklaste sätten att öka den maximala storleken för upload av filer i WordPress är att kontakta din WordPress hosting provider.
Detta är en relativt enkel uppgift för deras kundtjänst och kan göras på ett par minuter.
För Beginner kan detta vara mycket enklare än att lägga till kod i WordPress och editera server-filer.
Helt enkelt head över till din hosting providers website, gillar Bluehost, och logga in.
Klicka sedan på ikonen ”Chatt” längst ner på vyn. Du kan sedan be de anställda på supporten att öka storleken på filuppladdningen på din site i WordPress.
You can also reach out to support from inside your hosting account dashboard.
Metod 2: Skapa eller edit en befintlig php.ini-fil
Ett annat sätt att öka den maximala storleken på filuppladdningen är att skapa eller editera en fil som heter php.ini. Denna fil kontrollerar många settings för ditt WordPress webbhotell.
De flesta hosting providers för WordPress gillar Bluehost och har en nybörjarvänlig cPanel som hjälper dig att hantera din website.
Om din server har en cPanel dashboard kan du öka storleken på upload av filer med hjälp av de inbyggda tools.
Note: Följarna är från Bluehost cPanel. De flesta shared hosting providers kommer dock att ha liknande steg.
Du hittar en cPanel-knapp längst ner på tabben Webbhotell i Bluehost.
Om du klickar på den här knappen öppnas din cPanel dashboard.
Nu måste du rulla ner till Software section och klicka på ”MultiPHP INI Editor”.
Därefter rullar du ner till sektionen märkt ”upload_max_filesize” och enter en new maximal filstorlek i boxen.
Klicka sedan på knappen ”Tillämpa”.
Alternativt kan du clicka på menu tabs ”Editor Mode”, och då kan du ändra den maximala storleken för uppladdare direkt i editorn.
You need to edit the ’upload_max_filesize’ section to increase your file upload size.
När du är slutförd klickar du bara på knappen ”Save”.
Edit php.ini genom att lägga till kod
Om din nuvarande hosting provider inte erbjuder alternativet cPanel, måste du editera den här filen manuellt.
För att göra detta kan du använda en FTP-klient eller alternativet filhanterare i kontrollpanelen på ditt WordPress webbhotell.
Om du använder ett delat webbhotell kanske du ej ser php.ini-filen i din directory. Om du inte ser någon, skapar du helt enkelt en fil med namnet php.ini och uploadar den till din root folder.
Add sedan följande code snippet till filen:
upload_max_filesize = 256M
post_max_size = 256M
max_execution_time = 300
Du kan ändra limiten ”256M” till den filstorlek som du behöver för din WordPress blogg.
Metod 3: Add Code to Your WordPress Theme functions.php File
Denna metod innebär att du lägger till kod i din functions.php-fil i ditt WordPress theme.
Istället för att editera filen direkt rekommenderar vi att du använder WPCode. Det är det bästa code snippets plugin som allow you to add code to your website without breaking it.
Om du inte har gjort det tidigare kan du läsa vår guide för nybörjare om hur du lägger till customize-kod i WordPress.
Först måste du installera det gratis pluginet WPCode. För mer detaljer, se vår Step-by-Step guide om hur du installerar ett WordPress plugin.
Vid aktivering ska du navigera till Code Snippets ” + Add Snippet. Du måste hovera musen över alternativet ”Add Your Custom Code” och sedan klicka på knappen ”Use snippet”.
På nästa vy måste du ge ditt nya snippet ett namn och ändra code type till ”PHP Snippet”.
Sedan kan du copy and paste följande code snippet under ”Code Preview”. Se till att du ändrar ’256M’ till den maximala filstorlek du behöver:
@ini_set( 'upload_max_size' , '256M' );
@ini_set( 'post_max_size', '256M');
@ini_set( 'max_execution_time', '300' );
Till sist togglar du högst upp till ”Active” och klickar sedan på knappen ”Save Snippet”. Koden kommer nu att köras på din website.
Metod 4: Add Code till din .htaccess-fil
Ett annat sätt att öka den maximala filstorleken är att ändra .htaccess-filen. Denna fil kontrollerar konfigurationsinställningarna på hög nivå för din website.
För att göra detta måste du logga in på din website server via FTP. Om du inte har gjort det tidigare kan du läsa vår guide för nybörjare om hur man använder FTP för att uploada filer till WordPress.
Efter det måste du lokalisera din .htaccess-fil i din websites root folder.
Om du inte kan hitta din .htaccess-fil kan den vara dold av din filhanterare eller FTP-klient. För att lära dig mer, se vår guide om varför du inte kan hitta .htaccess-filen på din WordPress site.
Följer du detta måste du add to följande code snippet till din .htaccess fil:
php_value upload_max_filesize 256M
php_value post_max_size 256M
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value max_input_time 300
Om du vill öka storleken på din maximala upload av filer ännu mer ändrar du bara ”64M” till den storlek som du behöver.
Metod 5: Använd ett tillägg till WordPress för att öka storleken på filuppladdningen
Ett annat sätt du kan öka limiten för maximal upload av filer är genom att använda WP Increase Upload Filesize plugin. Om du inte är bekväm med att lägga till kod i WordPress, kan detta vara ett bra alternativ för dig.
Det första du behöver göra är att installera och aktivera pluginet. För mer detaljer, se vår guide om hur du installerar ett plugin för WordPress.
Efter aktivering, navigera till Media ” Increase Upload Limit i din WordPress adminpanel.
Detta leder dig till en vy där du kan selecta en new storlek för upload i rullgardinsmenyn ”Choose Maximum Upload File Size”.
Klicka sedan på knappen ”Save Changes”.
Note: Den maximala storleken för upload av filer ställs in av din hosting provider. Om du behöver en filstorleksgräns som är större än den som anges i rullgardinsmenyn måste du kontakta din hosting provider och be att få öka limiten.

Thanks, this helped me troubleshoot an upload limit. I’m on a Wordpress multisite network install, so it ended up being a setting in the Network Admin Settings.
I was confused at first, because my php settings were allowing larger uploads, but it was restricted in the Network Settings.
WPBeginner Support
Thanks for sharing what solved the problem for you

Would have been great if you have included the .user.ini method.
.user.ini uploaded in the root folder with the same value/text in your edited php.ini
Most of the time, only this method works for shared hosting.
ErnestPH

The php.ini file should work the same as the user.ini file unless your specific host ignores the php.ini but thank you for sharing your recommendation

This is the only solution that works on my shared hosting server. Thanks Ernesto!
Tamir Davidoff
Not working for me.
I have followed this guide and double checked the php.ini file to make sure that the changed are in fact saved. changed htaccess file to increase limits. and also tried modifying the phpMyAdmin httpd-app.conf and php-settings.conf file. All of these files reflect max upload higher than 40m and my WP site does not reflect Any of these changes. Really frustrated here.
Please help me, thanks !

If you haven’t already, you would want to reach out to your hosting provider to ensure there is not a setting on their end that is overriding what you are setting

Watchout for hidden php.ini files. In my setup I found 2 of them. The one which I found actually resolved the issue was found under
./etc/php/7.0/apache2/php.ini
modifying this file fixed my issue.
WPBeginner Support
Thanks for sharing your solution, with where that file is located we would recommend most users reach out to their hosting provider before looking in locations like that.

None of the above worked for me. A matter of fact, editing the htaccess file broke my site even after deleting the above code. Overwriting with a new file fixed the problem though.
I have a dedicated server on Bluehost. What worked for me was going in the WHM root, not cpanel nor FTP access. Search for MultiPHP INI Editor. Give it at least 5 minutes to load if you only see the title and icon. You can set you upload time, post size, etc. there. Works instantly, even if your site is using Cloudflare, without placing it in development mode or clearing the cache. I hope this helps someone.
WPBeginner Support
Thank you for sharing what worked for you, should other users be on a dedicated server, if they reach out and let BlueHost know the need to increase the upload size then BlueHost can normally edit that for them

when i tried this
Unable to communicate back with site to check for fatal errors, so the PHP change was reverted. You will need to upload your PHP file change by some other means, such as by using SFTP.
this happened to me
whats the solution of this
WPBeginner Support
You would need to use FTP rather than WordPress itself to add the code: https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-use-ftp-to-upload-files-to-wordpress-for-beginners/

I had been trying php.ini method but it never works please how will I set it..
Or you should please tell me the were to paste at function.php
WPBeginner Support
You would normally use a text editor to set the content in the php.ini file. For your functions.php it should go at the end normally so it can be removed later as needed. You may also want to check with your hosting provider if you are having trouble with these methods for if they can assist in increasing the file size for you.

I am using Nginx and i had already setup properly the values for php in the php.ini but what fixed it was puting the same value in the server block with the variable client_max_body_size xxxM;

The above explanation is fine for hosted sites, bit what about us guys that locahost? I still can figure out the ”upload_max_filesize” error when downloading Updfaftplus from WP Plugins or from a download zip file. I am a beginner and need hand-holding through this process. Help is appreciated.

hta access worked.
you guys must put the code before #END Wordpress
if you put after #end wordpress then site goes to 500 internal server error in my experience with godaddy hosting
Luis Felipe Lino
Thanks.
Jaime Lopes
On most of the shared cPanel sites I’ve setup:
-changing .htaccess brings the whole site down (500 internal error)
-adding php.ini or php5.ini files does nothing
-there is no option to choose ’Site Software’ in cPanel…

On vidahost (now TSOhost).
Adding the following php.ini worked for me… however (and I’m still a bit confused why), just putting it at http root didn’t work – I had to duplicate the php.ini file inside wp-admin and wp-include directories within wordpress.

Very helpful. Thanks very much.

I’m on HostGator and currently having issue with max execution time. It occurred a few weeks ago and HostGator support fixed the issue. It now reappeared and support is telling me that they can’t fix it because I’m on shared server. The agent even crashed my site by manually editing the htaccess file and didn’t verify if it was working or not. He did however recommend a plugin that would edit the htaccess file with code to increase the limit but it doesn’t work. I guess HostGator blocks it
Jessany
I added the code into the .php functions folder, and now Wordpress will not load. How do I fix this problem??
WPBeginner Support
Hi Jessany,
You can delete the code you added by accessing your website via FTP or File Manager in cPanel.

upload the above given code to .htaccess file it is working
Caleb
I have GoDaddy hosting and contacted them to help me increase my file upload size. It was a piece of cake — I didn’t have to create any files, add code to my theme, or anything like that. So for those of you who have GoDaddy or cPanel type controls, forget hacks and just use your admin settings.
Here’s what support had me do:
1. Go to your cPanel Admin (a similar hosting panel ’might’ work somewhat the same)
2. Scroll down to the ’Software’ and click on ’Select PHP Version’
3. Click on ’Switch to PHP Options’ in the top right And TADA! There’s all your PHP Options!
4. Just go down and change the ’post_max_filesize’ and ’upload_max_filesize’ to whatever you want, apply and save your changes, and you’re now a safe and happy non-coding website owner.
Good luck!

This worked for me but in order to even find these files, I had to call godaddy where I was walked through these steps or I never would have been able to navigate to the cpanel Admin without their help.
1. Sign on to godaddy
2. Click on my products upper left
3. Under web hosting click manage all
4. Click web hosting with C panel
5. Click C panel Admin icon
6. Scroll down to Software and click Select php version
7. Click on switch to php options
8. At bottom of page click on the number upload_max_filesize and select # you wish as the max filesize
9. Click apply. It works. Now file sizes can be uploaded to the selected max.
Chris Sandford
Multisite Users:
If your a dumb dumb like me, you may have tried everything to no avail.
Don’t forget if you’re using Wordpress Multi-site, to change the upload settings for individual sites.
Network Admin > Settings > Max upload file size
You may still need to use the tips in this article, but without changing the upload settings for multi-site, you won’t know if it’s working.

Wish you wouldn’t assume everyone looking for this solution knows what you mean by our ”Theme Functions File” – do you mean functions.php? I’m not an expert, and I’m really good at following precise directions, and don’t want to even put a toe in the water of editing files if I don’t know EXACTLY what file you’re talking about! No clues were provided, like what other code I might look for in the file to know I’m in the right place, etc. So…this didn’t help me at all
WPBeginner Support
Hi Lynn,
Yes you need to add it to your theme’s functions.php file.

Paste the following and save.
php_value upload_max_filesize 64M
php_value post_max_size 64M
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value max_input_time 300
Thomas
Where exactly did you paste it?
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
# END WordPress
php_value upload_max_filesize 64M
php_value post_max_size 64M
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value max_input_time 300
Is it before the #END WordPress statement? ( I get error when I do that)
Or should it be after the #END WordPress statement?
WPBeginner Support
Hi Thomas,
You need to paste it at the end of your .htaccess file after the #END WordPress line.
