Increase the Maximum File Upload Size
If it can’t be done at the server level here are some options for increasing upload files size from the front end.
Theme Functions File
An option for WordPress. Add these to your themes functions.php file.
@ini_set( 'upload_max_size' , '64M' ); @ini_set( 'post_max_size', '64M'); @ini_set( 'max_execution_time', '300' );
Create or Edit an existing PHP.INI file
In most cases if you are on a shared host, you will not see a php.ini file in your directory. If you do not see one, then create a file called php.ini and upload it in the root folder. In that file add the following code:
upload_max_filesize = 64M post_max_size = 64M max_execution_time = 300
htaccess Method
Open or create the .htaccess file in the root folder and add the following code:
php_value upload_max_filesize 64M php_value post_max_size 64M php_value max_execution_time 300 php_value max_input_time 300
There are cases where we have seen that just by adding the following code in the theme function’s file, you can increase the upload size:
1 |
@ ini_set ( 'upload_max_size' , '64M' ); |
2 |
@ ini_set ( 'post_max_size' , '64M' ); |
3 |
@ ini_set ( 'max_execution_time' , '300' ); |
Avoid Duplicate Content By Forcing WWWs
A website should either force www onto its url structure or remove them as to not be flagged as duplicate content. One of the following should be added to the sites .htaccess file.
Force WWWs
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^website.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.website.com/$1 [R=301,L] </IfModule>
Remove WWWs
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.website.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://website.com/$1 [R=301,L] </IfModule>
Some CMS’ will do this automatically.
