    Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 30720 bytes) in /home3/scottgot/public_html/williamstonfmc/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-list-table.php on line 650

    This is the message I get when activating the Google Calendar Events plugin. Unfortunately the person who controls the hosting site is very busy with other things and can’t help quickly and I’m hoping someone can direct me as to how I can fix this problem myself.

    Not sure what information to include. Any help is GREATLY appreciated.

    1. If you have access to your PHP.ini file, change the line in PHP.ini
If your line shows 32M try 64M:
memory_limit = 128M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (128MB)

2. If you don't have access to PHP.ini try adding this to an .htaccess file:
php_value memory_limit 128M

3. Try adding this line to your wp-config.php file:
Increasing memory allocated to PHP
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '128M');

4. Talk to your host.

    I just forwarded your suggestions to the host. I think he was unsure how to fix the problem also and he was excited to hear of your suggestions.

    I’ll let you know what we find out after making the changes.

    Thank you!

    for shared hosting the maximum memory is 64 mb,that’s why you get that error

    Ahhhh. Will the above suggested changes fix the problem or is there something else that I need to do (or suggest to the host)?

    Thank you!!

    No – it actually depends upon the host.

    So there is no fix?

    The fix is to increase the memory limit or reduce the number of plugins being used and/or switch themes.

    This is an old post I know, but thought I’d pipe in for future reference. This came from my host, not sure if it would work the same with all hosts?

    The current default memory limit is 32M

    You can override it by creating a php.ini in the same directory as the file that’s running with the following content:

    memory_limit = 64M

    This would go in the wordpress root directory.
