 * I can’t access my dashboard since I got this messageFatal error: Allowed memory
   size of 41943040 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 7680 bytes) in /home/robertma/
   public_html/blog/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-list-table.php on line 180
 * I read the documentation but did not find where I can change the memory size 
   php.
    Looked into wp-config, wp-settings.php and some other places did not find
   anything. Sorry for my english, can someone help me? Thanks

 * Try [increasing the memory available to PHP](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/253495#post-1017842).

 * Thanks esmi, I’m really a neophyte in wordpress, so I can’t find the file.
    I
   tried this suggestion: “3. Try adding this line to your wp-config.php file: Increasing
   memory allocated to PHP define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’64M’);” but it did not work.
   I would like so much to solve my problem until Christmas…

 * If adding that code to your wp-config doesn’t work, it may be that your hosting
   company won’t allow you to increase it. Have you asked them about this?
