# WordPress Menu Limit

 * Hi António,
 * I am trying to extend the capabilities of an horizontal menu to be able to accommodate
   about 500 sub-menus (an horizontal drop-down menu).
 * According to some research I’ve done – if I’m not wrong – I need to edit my .
   htaccess file (placed in my WordPress root level) so as to enable however many
   second-level and third-level sub menus I need to add.
 * At the moment I am just testing the WordPress site on localhost (locally).
 * I need to add to the .htaccess file something along the lines of:
    ** php_value
   suhosin.post.max_vars 2048 php_value suhosin.request.max_vars 2048
 * Would the .htaccess file need to be edited so as to read:
    ** # BEGIN WordPress
   php_value suhosin.post.max_vars 2048 php_value suhosin.request.max_vars 2048 #
   END WordPress
 * **
    I am not sure, as I am pretty new at this stuff, maybe your plugin ‘WP htaccess
   Control’ can solve this problem, once installed. Would you be kind to show me
   what is the exact code I need to include, in order to extend the capability for
   WordPress to accommodate much more Menus, please?
 * Many Thanks
