 * Has anyone added the bzip2 extension to wordpress recently? I can’t seem to get
   it to work. I have created a php.ini file and I know its being loaded as my max
   file upload has gone up when I called phpinfo.
    Once I knew the ini was loading;
 * I compiled libbz2.so in the ubuntu terminal and then uploaded it to the root 
   folder.
    I added the line extension=libbz2.so to the php.ini file.
 * I’m very new to this, any help would be very appreciated.
