   Hello,

   I am very familiar with using Word Press themes but can't figure this out.

   After putting text (words) in a page and clicking save, it cuts off at 284 words. I have other sites that have over 1000 words in a page.

   Please help me if you can.

   Try increasing the available memory:

   Thank you for your suggestion, but the plug-in did not work. I will try to increase the php memory manually.

   I went into our severs WHM and increased the php memory to 64M and am still getting the same 284 word limitation in a any given page.

   Does anyone have any other suggestions?

   Have you tried:

   - deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

   - switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific problems?

   - resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin? Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

   I have tried three different themes. Same on all. It happens with a bare boned theme without any plug-ins installed. I only installed Memory Bump as you suggested and Tiny MCE to see if it was the editor. Still the same error. I have deactivated them and still the same.

   I wonder if I can back to an older version of WP to see if it's 3.0?

   Thanks again,
   Mark

   Three more things to try:

   1. Increase the maximum execution time in php.ini (e.g. max_execution_time = 600 ; ). Many hosts may not allow this.

   2. Increase the upload and post size values in php.ini (e.g. upload_max_filesize = 64M ; and post_max_size = 64M ; ). Many hosts may not allow this.

   3. Increase the upload and post size values via .htaccess (e.g. php_value upload_max_filesize 64M and php_value post_max_size = 64M ). Many hosts may not allow this.

   Surprisingly our host server allowed us to change all of the settings you listed. It's still the same. I can only have up to 284 words in a page.

   I have other, older, WP websites hosted on the same server that allow more words to be saved.

   Do you think it's version 3.0?

   There's no known bug of this type in 3.0 The problem has all the hallmarks of a memory problem. Try increasing memory further. Also bear in mind that just because you seem to have altered various server settings, it doesn't mean they have been altered. Some hosts may still apply restrictions that over-write your changes, so you may have to contact your hosts at some point and discuss this with them.

    The Word Press folder was missing 2 files.
