 * I have been experiencing two problems since upgrading to 2.7.
 * The first is when I try to update plugins. Some have updated correctly but **
   cforms** and **wp-visitors** give me the following error message: **Fatal error:
   Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 1010456 bytes)
   in /home1/crawfos2/public_html/wp-includes/http.php on line 1027**
 * The other problem occurs when writing a post. At odd times a message highlighted
   in pink shows up directly above the information at the bottom that tells when
   a post that has not been published was last edited. It tells me that I don’t 
   have permission to do that. What that is I don’t know. If I refresh, it goes 
   away. If I forget to refresh first, I lose everything written since the last 
   save.

 * Methods for increasing the amount of memory a PHP script may consume
 * 1. If you have access to your PHP.ini file, change the line in PHP.ini
    If your
   line shows 16M try 32M: `memory_limit = 32M ; Maximum amount of memory a script
   may consume (32MB)`
 * 2. If you don’t have access to PHP.ini try adding this to an .htaccess file:
   `
   php_value memory_limit 32M`
 * 3. Try adding this line to your wp-config.php file:
    Increasing memory allocated
   to PHP `define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '32M');`
 * 4. Talk to your host.
 * As for your post writing problem, what happens after you’ve solved the PHP memory
   problem. Also what happens if you disable all plugins?

 * I apparently don’t have access to my PHP.ini file. At least I was unable to find
   it.
 * I implemented suggestions 2 and 3, without success.
 * I will talk to my host tomorrow or Monday.
 * Thanks for the help but I was an assembler language programmer back in the 70s
   and have become almost proficient at HTML. PHP is not even in my vocabulary.

 * Hello I’m Adrie Silva the owner of a web hosting, design, & tutorials network.
   I have my network on the same IP as my clients so I went through this same issue
   and I have the step by step solutions for altering the memory limit set by default
   in the php.ini file:
 * 1: Go to your “public_html” directory
    2: Locate the “wp-settings.php” file (
   it should be in the same directory where you first installed wordpress and where
   you’ll find the wp-config.php file) 3: Edit the “wp-settings.php” file 4: Change
   the number of the “memory_limit” to something bigger like 96..
 * How?
 * -Find:
    define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’32M’); -Replace the 32 with 96 define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’,’
   96M’); -Save the file -Refresh your website -That should work and have you installing
   more plugins to your hearts delight!
 * Now if you’re still having problems email me at: [Adrie@silvaprints.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/2-problems-3/Adrie@silvaprints.com?output_format=md)
 * Or get hosted with my shared ip at a rate of 0.17Cents a month per 1GB of unmetered
   bandwidth, unlimited services including Fantastico on cPanel! Three days of Free
   Trial plus 99% uptime between 4 servers!
