 * Hi
 * For info, I have just increased my php.ini upload limit to 40MB
 * I am having trouble uploading a plugin and decided to deactivate the site plugins
   to see if they were causing the problem but I seem to have lost the ability to
   bulk deactivate the plugins, I can deactivate them individually but not in bulk.
 * Also just noticed I can’t delete plugins anymore, very strange, probably very
   simple but still strange!
 * Has anyone any ideas please?
 * Thank you, in anticipation
 * Phil

 * Have you tried disabling/deleting that plugin using FTP? Maybe it’s not completely
   uploaded, and the incomplete javascript code is affecting the others.

 * Hi
    No, it wasn’t the plugin, when I increased my php.ini upload limit I also
   increased my post size and put the php.ini file in my WP Admin folder, the problem
   righted itself when I deleted the line to increase the post size, upload limit
   is at 64MB.
 * I am trying to upload a plugin called WP RSS Magnet which is about 2.8MB so it
   should handle it with ease now but if I try to upload I am asked if I really 
   want to do it and try again, if I try to upload via ftp I can see the file uploaded
   but it does not show in my Installed Plugin list, still strange.
 * Something is blocking it but I have tried deactivating all my plugins but no 
   difference!
 * Do you have any other ideas
    Phil
