The plugin dynamically writes and updates PHP server directives in `.htaccess`, `. user.ini`, and `php.ini` files and also applies PHP runtime filters (`wp_handle_upload`,` upload_size_limit`) to increase `upload_max_filesize` and `post_max_size`. It uses a multi-method approach to ensure the limits are applied on virtually any hosting environment. ### What is the maximum upload file size I can set? There is no hard limit set by this plugin. You can set values such as 64MB, 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, 1GB, 2GB, or even 5GB+. However, your actual maximum is ultimately determined by your hosting provider’s server-level caps. ### What if my hosting provider blocks php.ini or .htaccess overrides? Some managed WordPress hosts (e.g., WP Engine, Kinsta, Flywheel) enforce strict server-level caps that cannot be overridden by plugins. If the settings do not apply automatically, please contact your hosting provider and request them to increase your server-level PHP limits (`upload_max_filesize`, `post_max_size`, `memory_limit`). ### Will this plugin slow down my website? Absolutely not. The plugin is strictly optimized to run **only within the WordPress admin panel**. It has zero impact on your front-end website speed or performance scores (GTmetrix, PageSpeed Insights, etc.). ### Is this plugin compatible with WooCommerce, Elementor, Divi, and WPML? Yes. The plugin is fully compatible with popular plugins including WooCommerce, Elementor, Divi, WPML, All-in-One WP Migration, UpdraftPlus, and any other plugin that relies on WordPress’s native upload handling. ### Does this plugin support WordPress Multisite? Single-site installations are fully supported and tested. Multisite support is planned for a future release. ### Is this plugin GDPR compliant? Yes. This plugin does not collect, process, or transmit any personally identifiable information (PII). It is fully GDPR compliant. ### How do I check my current upload limit after installing the plugin? After activating the plugin, go to **Upload Manager Server Status** in your WordPress admin panel. You will see a live audit of all current PHP directives including ` upload_max_filesize`, `post_max_size`, `memory_limit`, and `max_execution_time`. ### Does the plugin work on shared hosting? Yes! The plugin is specifically designed to work with shared hosting environments like Hostinger, Bluehost, SiteGround, NameCheap, GoDaddy, and DreamHost by using multiple override methods automatically. ### What happens when I uninstall the plugin? When the plugin is uninstalled, it cleanly removes all custom entries it added to`. htaccess` and `.user.ini` files, restoring them to their previous state. No database pollution or orphaned settings are left behind. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Nexura Upload Limits Manager – Increase Maximum Upload File Size” is open source software.
