Is this correct. Do I place this in a .htaccess file:
Code: Select all
php_value max_execution_time 60
I read this on another site:
ALSO, why would I not have had to change this value before the crash on my hosting? I'm so frustrated that this all happened in the first place because I had the functionality working perfectly, to the 'T' .This will set the time limit to 60 seconds. But if you are not allowed to change php.ini, it is doudtful that you will be allowed to change the value of max_execution_time in a .htaccess file. If you can do it, however, then the .htaccess method gives you the flexibility to set different time limits in different directories - and thus different scripts that reside therein.
Is the attach mod currently using GD to create the thumbnails? If so where is the setting for this?
Is there another script that I can use instead of GD that will allow the user to add images larger than 2mb (imagemagic ?) ? Preferably something with a status bar instead of waiting for the browser to respond with its somewhat inaccurate status bar? The reason is that the moderators/users of this forum are VERY computer illiterate. They also don't know the difference between a 200kb image save from a website and a 2.5mb photograph taken from a high mega pixel digital camera. I wish I remember how I accomplished it before. I thought my backups were recent but they weren't recent enough.
