WordPress and PHP both control how large a file you can upload. WP Upload Size lets you set a higher WordPress media upload limit in a few clicks—using MB or GB instead of raw bytes.

Important

This plugin adjusts the WordPress upload size filter. It cannot raise PHP limits by itself. If uploads still fail, ask your host to increase upload_max_filesize and post_max_size in php.ini (or use .user.ini / hosting panel settings).

Where to find settings

Go to Media Upload Size after activating the plugin.
