   I want to increase my data upload limit from 8MB. I have already contacted my host and have altered the code in the php.ini file as well as adding an extra line of code to the .htaccess file.

   However when I try to upload a file to my wordpress gallery it still says the limit is 8MB even though I have increased it to 100MB with my host.

   Please help!

   Visit Settings -> Permalinks so that WordPress updates its .htacess settings. Also make sure after that, that your edits are preserved, because WordPress tends to delete the changes you made to the .htaccess file if you make it inside the
   

   # BEGIN WordPress
   # END WordPress

   block

   Thanks so much for your response. When you say visit the settings>permalinks section, what should i do there? And where can I check that my edits have been preserved?
   Sorry I'm a bit of a novice at this programming stuff!

   Thanks

   You shouldn't do anything there, just opening the page is enough. At the end of the file .htaccess you should still see the lines that look like that:
   

   php_value upload_max_filesize 100M
   php_value post_max_size 100M

   Thanks again. So my .htaccess file currently looks like this:

   # -FrontPage-
   
   Options None
   
   <Limit GET POST>
   order deny,allow
   deny from all
   allow from all
   require group authors administrators
   </Limit>
   <Limit PUT DELETE>
   order deny,allow
   deny from all
   </Limit>
   AuthType Basic
   AuthName soosanlolavar.com
   AuthUserFile /home/soosanl1/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.pwd
   AuthGroupFile /home/soosanl1/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.grp
   SetEnv PHPRC /home/_EnterUserNameHere_/public_html
   php_value upload_max_filesize 200M
   php_value post_max_size 200M

   Is that correct?

   Thanks
