# Server settings edit, "max_input_time (s)" increase

 * Site hosted on yahoo, using wordpress 4.1 and a third part theme which comes 
   with the cherry plugin needed to “import content” of the theme.
 * Same warning repeatedly, “max_input_time (s)” is currently “-1”, and “45” is 
   required.
 * Above this detailed description of the issue is this note; “Caution!
    Some of
   your server settings do not meet the requirements for installing the sample data.
   Please, consult with your hosting provider on how to increase the required values.”
 * So far I have made four calls to Yahoo web hosting customer service, with varying
   results – none of which address the issue, all of which say the adjustment needs
   to take place on the wordpress end.
 * The odd thing is I had this EXACT same issue four months ago while building the
   test site for this project. One call to yahoo web hosting customer service solved
   the issue in five minutes. I take it that guy has today off.
 * Can anyone, please, direct me to a solution?
