 * I’m trying to place a widget called “rokgallery” in most of my pages, but when
   I’m trying to place the first gallery, I get the following message —
 * Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 171966464 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate
   24149973 bytes) in /home/content/03/6698603/html/comiendorico/wp-includes/wp-
   db.php on line 853
 * How can I fix it, where can I find the following file /home/content/03/6698603/
   html/comiendorico/wp-includes/wp-db.php
 * Thank you

 * First you should examine the sizes of the images you are trying to load. Most
   of the time it is not useful to have images much larger than 1000px x 800px, 
   and not larger than about 200K. If your images exceed these limits you should
   probably resize them.
 * If your images have already been optimized for the web, then you may need to 
   cut down on the number shown in the gallery.
 * If neither of these things work, here are some ways that I tried to increase 
   the memory size, including the one that worked for me:

 * Thank you, I re-sized the images as you have suggested and the problem was solved.
