Increase upload limit in Joomla

Increase upload limit in Joomla

Raise Joomla's upload limit by setting upload_max_filesize and post_max_size in php.ini or your hosting panel, then check System Information.

Increasing the max upload size is done in the following manner:

  • use FTP to go to your website
  • create a new php.ini file in the root of your website
  • add the following code to your php.ini file

upload_max_filesize = 256M
post_max_size = 256M

  • When done, save, and check if your upload is higher now (System/System information, tab PHP information, search for upload_max_filesize)
  • Also, go to Joomla admin panel - media / options and upload your filesize
