You can still break up that file into pieces if necessary.
You might ask your host to increase PHP setting called max_upload_size as most hosts leave that at 2MB.
Just modify php.ini with a text editor for yourself.
I think your missunderstanding something. When i go into the import feature on the dashboard it says:
Choose a WordPress WXR file to upload, then click Upload file and import.
Choose a file from your computer: (Maximum size: 2MB)
Thats what i want increased, 2mb isnt enough. I have 2 blogs, one with an exported files size of 2.7mb and the other with 3.2mb.
If you can’t increase the max_upload_size by making a change to your php.ini file you have two choices:
1. Ask your host if they can increase that setting
2. Break the WXR file into pieces.
How do i break it into pieces?
Is there a tool i can use that does it automatically?
I guess I’m off to ask my host to increase the size. I’m having enough issues with 2.5 that I want to do a fresh install, import my stuff, and port over, etc. The file I exported from my site is 17.6 MB in size!
