Quick question here:
I have updated the php.ini in my public_html folder as below, but the system status still shows max_input_vars = 1000 and max_execution_time = 30. Does this mean that the settings is not applying properly?
max_input_vars = 5000
max_execution_time = 300
post_max_size = 50M
Probably. Some settings may need to be set from your hosting panel to actually be in effect for your hosting account.
Thanks for the reply Chris. After trying to lower the settings to 2000 and 60, the 60 is now showing in system status but 1000 is still showing for max input vars. It is now stuck like that and won’t change anymore.
I will check with blue host to see what they say.
Hi.
Please follow this guide to increase the system status parameters: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
If you have issues with php.ini, please contact your hosting provider and let them know what you are trying to do so they can point you to the correct file.
Thank you!
So, now I can change the max_execution_time at will. It is currently set to 300 and shows correctly in the system status, so I know that I am editing the correct php.ini.
However, for max_input_vars, I currently set it to 5000 but it will not show up in the system status. It still displays 1000 no matter what I set it to.
Is it possible that system status is just not getting the correct data from my php.ini file?
Your host may have a limit set you cannot override, or they mave system set to not allow local overrides. Most hosting panels allow you to set php settings withiut manual edit of file. Ticket to your hosting provider recommended.
Well, I’m not quite sure what Bluehost did differently than I did, but they resolved the problem. Thank you Chris and Bogdan for your responses!
