title: Changing values in `php.ini` not taking effect in Nginx
body: <p>I am using Easyengine for a WordPress site, and I need to upload a large file to the server, I know I can use FTP / SSH to do so but in the long run I need it to be done via PHP, and the current upload limit that I see is <code>100M</code> when doing <code>phpinfo();</code></p>
  
  <p>The setup uses PHP 7 and the PHP <code>INI</code> file that I found is at </p>
  
  <p><code>etc/php/7.2/php.ini</code> </p>
  
  <p>I made changes to these parts:</p>
  
  <pre><code>upload_max_filesize = 2100M
  post_max_size = 2100M
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But even after this the upload limit is 100M as I can see on both WordPress plugin page that I am using as well as with <code>phpinfo()</code></p>
  
  <p>I read somewhere that Nginx needs to be restarted so I did <code>ee site restart example.com</code> and both Nginx and PHP were restarted still no effect. </p>
  
  <p>Some articles suggested adding a rule to <code>/etc/nginx/nginx.conf</code> but unfortunately that path doesn't even exist, so I created that file at that path and tried but still no use. </p>
