PHP Memory

If you have access to your PHP.ini file, change the lines in PHP.ini

[pastacode lang=”php” manual=”memory_limit%20%3D%20256M%20%3B%20Maximum%20amount%20of%20memory%20a%20script%20may%20consume%20(256MB)%0Aini_set(‘max_execution_time’%2C%20300)%3B%20%2F%2F300%20seconds%20%3D%205%20minutes” message=”” highlight=”” provider=”manual”/]

Incase, if you don’t have access to PHP.ini try adding this to an .htaccess file:

[pastacode lang=”php” manual=”php_value%20memory_limit%20256M%0Aphp_value%20max_execution_time%20300″ message=”” highlight=”” provider=”manual”/]

If this still doesn’t work or if you’re not confident about making these changes, you would need to talk to your hosting company.
