 * Hi,
 * I’m trying to install Divi to a website, and I keep getting the message: The 
   uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini.
 * Does anyone know what this means, and how to fix it?
 * Thanks for any support.

 * The maximum upload size is controlled at the server-level, not by WordPress. 
   Here are three ways you can increase the upload limit:
 * 1. If you can edit or override the system `php.ini` file, increase the maximum
   file and post sizes. For example, `upload_max_filesize = 100M ;` and `post_max_size
   = 100M ;`
 * 2. If you cannot edit or override the system `php.ini` file, add `php_value upload_max_filesize
   100M` and `php_value post_max_size = 100M` to your `.htaccess` file.
 * 3. If neither of these work, it’s time to ask your hosting provider to increase
   the maximum file and post sizes on your account. Keep in mind that most decent
   hosting providers allow this, and If your hosting provider won’t accommodate 
   you, perhaps it’s time to find a new hosting provider.
 * (in the above examples, the limit is set to 100MB)
