\"\"<\/a>A common error you can come across in\u00a0WordPress<\/a> is a PHP memory limit error<\/a><\/strong>. This happens when WordPress<\/a> doesn’t have enough memory to achieve what you want. It can be caused by poorly written plugins that will continue to run a procedure until the installation runs out of memory.<\/p>\n

Since version 2.5 there is a wp-config.php option\u00a0WP_MEMORY_LIMIT<\/strong>\u00a0which allows you to configure the maximum amount of memory that can be used by PHP.<\/p>\n

When you change this option in the wp-config.php it will only affect your WordPress site<\/a> and not any other PHP sites.<\/p>\n

The default memory allocated to WordPress<\/a> is 32MB, if the value in the php.ini is more than the allocated WordPress<\/a> amount WordPress<\/a> will use this value.<\/p>\n

For example if WordPress<\/a> has allocated 32MB of memory and php.ini is configured to 64MB then WordPress<\/a> will use 64MB.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

To change the WordPress memory limit<\/a><\/strong><\/em> you just add the following into the wp-config.php.<\/p>\n

define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '64M');<\/pre>\n
If this doesn’t change your allocated wordpress memory limit<\/a> your hosts may not allow you change this setting, if this is the case you should contact your hosting company<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
