# How to increase the upload size for wordpress

Make a blank text file. Save As php.ini

Add the code below in the text file:

upload_max_filesize = YOUR MAX SIZE

post_max_size = YOUR MAX SIZE

Ensure the ‘YOUR MAX SIZE’ is replaced by definite size e.g 64M

Insert the php.ini file into the folder you've set up your website e.g put it in the same folder you have WP installed so it doesn't affect my whole site.
