WordPress max upload filesize not updating

    I’ve been pouring over this for nearly an hour now. I’ve increased the upload filesize in my php.ini file and have verified that it is changed by creating a PHP file with only `$max_upload = (int)(ini_get(‘upload_max_filesize’));
    echo $max_upload;` in it. Opening the page, it returns 64 (what I set it to).

    I’ve gone in and added define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '64M'); to wp-config.php immediately after the first comment, with variations of '64' and just 64 as parameters. But whenever I go to add media to a post, it shows the upload limit as 1MB (yes, I’ve reloaded the page many times). It’s odd because twice I was able to upload photos greater than the 1MB limit. I can’t restart Apache or anything because this site is hosted by GreenGeeks. WordPress is running the Modularity theme by Graph Paper Press in a multi-site configuration, if that makes any difference.

    I’ve spent so long on this I can’t remember if I’m leaving out any information. Let me know if you need something else.

    I think you need to speak to the hosts about this.

    I actually did it without them. Turns out it was because I was using a multi-site configuration. I had to go into my Network Admin Dashboard, then go down to Settings > Network Settings and scroll down to Upload Settings, where I could change “Max upload file size.” Hours and hours spent on this simple, simple problem…
