title: Wordpress plugins Install/Update timeout
body: <p>I have been installing/updating my self-hosted Wordpress themes/plugins through FTP. ie get the link from my wordpress site, go download the plugin from wordpress.org, upload from my comp to the site through FTP.</p>
  
  <p>I want to be able to update it through the wp admin interface instead, but it seems to timeout and the page just stops loading after a while. I can see half the files uploaded successfully through FTP. Is there a way around this?</p>
  
  <p>Here is an example of what is shown on the screen:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Installing Theme: DMS 1.0.3.6 Downloading install package from
    <a href="https://wordpress.org/themes/download/dms.1.0.3.6.zip" rel="nofollow">https://wordpress.org/themes/download/dms.1.0.3.6.zip</a>…</p>
    
    <p>Unpacking the package…</p>
    
    <p>Installing the theme…</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>1) I have added the WP_MEMORY_LIMIT in wp-config.php file with</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '100M');</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Nothing happens.</p>
  
  <p>2) I have added set_time_limit() to wp-config.php file</p>
  
  <pre><code>set_time_limit() 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and this error occured </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Warning: set_time_limit() has been disabled for security reasons in
    /home/<strong><em>*</em>*</strong>/public_html/wp-config.php on line 83</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>3) I tried editing the .htaccess file, but that breaks the whole workpress installation and I end up seeing an error page instead.</p>
  
  <pre><code>AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
  php_value upload_max_filesize 100M 
  php_value post_max_size 100M
  php_value memory_limit 100M
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How can I install/update my plugins directly through the Wordpress User Interface? Is there a way around the timeout?</p>
  
  <p>My webhost is www.000webhost.com btw.</p>
