how to Drupal7 increase file upload size

In my content type, my drupal 7 server is stating I have a 'current max limit 8MB' for file uploads. So I cannot change this to 128Mb as I want to.

But my web host php settings allow for 128MB uploads and in my config/media/file-settings I have set an upload of 128 MB uploads. In my settings.php file I have set 'ini_set('memory_limit', '2048M'); ' under PHP settings.

Why is my Drupal site not increasing the upload size, though I have set the increased upload size in all the file settings, the content type settings and php settings file. There is no error message, but also no increase. What have I missed out, or what am I doing wrong? How can I increase the file upload?

Thank you

  • You could add these lines to your htaccess file in your root directory.

    php_value upload_max_filesize 128M

    php_value post_max_size 128M
