XAMPP Apache PHP how to increase upload limit


How can you increase the PHP upload limit?
This can be done with the php.ini file. Here is how you do it:
Create a file under public_html and name it php.ini (if you do not have one yet.) Put the following in it:
upload_max_filesize = 5M
post_max_size = 5M
Replace the 5 with 20 or less. If you are letting other people upload, a size cap protects your storage space from abuse/overuse.
You will then need to add this line to a .htaccess file: (Please replace "yourusername" with your cpanel user name an add to the end of the comand line the folder(s) to the location of the php.ini file - Also there is a space between path and /home)
suPHP_ConfigPath /home/Yourusername/public_html
Now your PHP upload limit should be increased.
