 * I’m getting the following error when I publish a post. It still publishes the
   post.
 * Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate
   105278 bytes) in /usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/blog/wp-includes/functions.php on
   line 1179
 * The only change I made to the site was to add some plugins, last night. Has anyone
   seen this problem.

 * What plugins? One of them is probably using too much memory. If you can, up the
   limit to 16MB in php.ini … otherwise, you’ll likely have to uninstall the plugin
   that is causing the problem.
