How to increase the WordPress memory limit

1. Edit your wp-config.php file and enter something like:

define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M');

WordPress memory can be different to the server – you need to set this regardless of server memory settings

2. If you have access to your PHP.ini file, change the line in PHP.ini If your line shows 32M try 256M:

memory_limit = 256M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (256MB)

3. If you don’t have access to PHP.ini try adding this to the .htaccess file:

php_value memory_limit 256M

4. If none of the above works then talk to your host.
