Ok…
I just went into my NETWORK settings and changed the max upload to BLANK.
When I went to my site, it said my Maximum File Upload was 0KB…
I went back and changed the NETWORK settings to 1000 KB.
It showed 1MB on my site…
I went back and changed the NETWORK settings to 100000KB.
It showed 8MB on my site… again!
How do I get past that 8MB?!?!
Copied the 100M upload php.ini file to wp-admin… resolved.
ridiculous…
Maybe we could have that upload page have a link on the upload size number so that we could click on it and get to a settings page that shows WHERE that size is being controlled from?
Resolved.
Move a php.ini file to your wp-admin folder and it will accept the values.
i can’t believe you finally figured this out. this has been a problem for me for at least a year. what a pain.
it doeasn’t work for me 🙁
does anyone have othe solution ?
Try this :
Increase the setting values in php.ini (e.g. upload_max_filesize = 64M ; and post_max_size = 64M 😉
seemed to work for me…
Spyze, thanks for posting the solution. I had the same issue, and it worked for me.
I created a soft link in the wp-admin directory to my php.ini file. That solved my problem. (The uploader page reads ’16M’ right now.) WordPress v3.5
cd wp-admin
ln -s /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini php.ini
Note that the location of the actual php.ini will vary with the Linux distro.
