Increase Max File Size and Max Upload Size

(@ezysetup)

How may I allow users to upload pictures of up to 5mb in size and (if possible) upload 5 or more at one time (using CTRL + Click)? Below are the site’s current htaccess and server settings.

Thank you in advance,
Andrew

Update:
My host has increased the server settings as shown below, but I’m still having issues.
```
PHP Memory Limit : 40
PHP Max Upload Size : 10M
PHP Max Post Size : 15M
```
I can upload small files (100k) without issues. I can even upload 6 or more of the 100k files without issue. But if I go to upload just one 500k file then the file uploads, but when the page refreshes it doesn’t show the success. The body of the page only shows the page title. It doesn’t show any of the body text or the upload plugin.

Also, the NextGen gallery to which it uploads does not automatically update. I have NextGen installed. The files are uploading to the correct directory. Here are the settings:

Default Upload folder is: /hsphere/local/home/c217606/mydomain.net/wp-content/imageuploadqueue
“Limit User uploads by role” is checked.
Select which users are allowed to upload” has “Administrator” and “Picture_Contributors” checked. (The issues occur when logged in as the admin. I haven’t tried the other role yet.)
“Allowed image extensions” has jpg, jpeg, png, and gif checked.
“Limit Upload File Size” is set to 5000KB
“Enable Moderation queue” is unchecked.
“Enable NextGen Gallery Uploading” is checked.
“Notify Me by e-mail…” is checked. (This is working.)
“NGG Gallery Directory” is: /hsphere/local/home/c217606/mydomain.net/wp-content/gallery/
Note: The gallery I’m working with now is at: /mydomain.net/wp-content/gallery/mcgeewedding

Any help will be greatly appreciated. I’m trying to set up a space where users may upload pictures taken at my niece’s wedding, as well as view pictures others have uploaded. Other than giving out the username and password that allows the individuals to log in, I need the process to be automatic. That is, upload and then the gallery shows the uploaded pictures. Obviously I’m trying to set this up quickly while the wedding is still fresh in everyone’s mind.

Thanks,
Andrew

Anything?

I just want to be able to have users upload pictures and have them automatically displayed in a gallery. I’m open to anything.

Thank you,
Andrew
