title: How to increase Maximum Upload size in cPanel?
body: <p>I am using cPanel of my website to increase maximum upload file size for wordpress media uploads. I have used the codes(found out from google) for this purpose wp-config.php, .htaccess but nothing is working. In my cPanel, there is no service for php configuration editor under software / services section or anywhere else. Please help what should I do?</p>
  
  <p>My .htaccess shows this code: </p>
  
  <pre><code># BEGIN WordPress
  &lt;IfModule mod_rewrite.c&gt;
  RewriteEngine On
  RewriteBase /
  RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
  &lt;/IfModule&gt;
  # END WordPress
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I tried by placing the code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>php_value upload_max_filesize 20M
  php_value post_max_size 20M
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>inside and outside # blocks, it gives 500 error rather. </p>
