Fixing the WordPress Memory Exhausted Error Print

The WordPress memory exhausted error occurs when your site exceeds the allowed PHP memory limit. It often displays as a Fatal error: Allowed memory size of... exhausted message. Here’s how to fix it:

1. Increase PHP Memory Limit:
   • Access your wp-config.php file and increase the memory limit:
     1. Use FTP or File Manager to access your site’s files.
     2. Open wp-config.php in a text editor.
     3. Add the following line before the “Happy blogging” line:
        php

        Copy code
        

        define( 'WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M' );
     4. Save the file and re-upload it.
2. Increase Memory via php.ini:
   
   • If the above step doesn’t work, you can try increasing memory via the php.ini file:
     1. Access the public_html or root directory.
     2. Look for the php.ini file. If it doesn’t exist, create one.
     3. Add the following line:
        plaintext

        Copy code
        

        memory_limit = 256M
     4. Save and upload the file.
3. Edit .htaccess:
   • Another option is to modify the .htaccess file:
     1. Open the .htaccess file.
     2. Add the following line:
        plaintext

        Copy code
        

        php_value memory_limit 256M
     3. Save and re-upload the file.
