I have a website that list many products that I sell in my store. I use wordpress and Marketpress plugin to manage all the products, my problem occurs when I create a menu of categories and submenu of products under each catgory. The menu wont display and prevents the rest of the content from displaying as well. Researching this increasing my php_value max_input_vars to 5000 may work.

In order to support some RTL language , I need to set 'max_input_vars' in php.ini to 7000 instead of 1000
I' have got the below error from Prestashop 1.6.0.9
" Warning! Your PHP configuration limits the maximum number of fields allowed in a form

I can't increase the max_input_vars
When I try to translate installed modules on Prestashop, I get the error message:
"Warning! Your PHP configuration limits the maximum number of fields allowed in a form
4000 for max_input_vars.
Please ask your hosting provider to increase this limit to 6413 at least, or you will have to edit the translation files."
I made changes in php.ini directly and gave access to my back office to inmotion hosting support through the chat but they did not succeed either and told me to ask through community support.

Thanks in advance

My Wordpress theme requires max_input_vars in php.ini be set to 3000.

I edited the php.ini file in my www directory but the change does not take effect until I restart apache. How do i do that or can you? Thanks

PHP Max Input Vars 1000 - We recommend setting PHP max_input_vars to at least 3000. See: Increasing the PHP max vars limit
PHP Max Input Vars (allowed)
The effective maximum number of variables your server can use for a single function to avoid overloads. If this value is lower than max_input_vars your server is applying restrictions on the actual number of vars that can be used.
If you modified the server settings refresh the option to test.
1000 - We recommend setting PHP max_input_vars to at least 3000. More info

Hello semjonova, Thank you for your question on editing the max_input_vars for your php settings. Please make sure set your php.ini file to be recursive or it will only work in the folder in which the file resides.

Hello, Sorry to hear you are having issues changing your max_input_vars. Be sure that your php.ini file is set to be recursive. This way the change will be for all folders and files. Kindest Regards, Scott M

Hello phammanhthang87, Thank you for contacting us about issues increasing your PHP settings on your server. Here is a helpful link to our helpful walk-through guide on How to Change PHP settings in your hosting account. That guide walks you through changing your PHP settings in your php.ini file, instead of your .htacess file. If you do not see a file named php.ini in your public_html, please contact our Support Department and request that we create one for you. You may have to make the PHP changes recursive, meaning it affects all child folders. You can confirm the PHP setting has changed with a phpinfo page. Let us know if you have any further questions. Thank you, John-Paul

Hello,

I have made sure you have a copy of the php.ini file in your account under the public_html folder. I went ahead and set the max_input_vars to 7000 for you. Feel free to edit that file at any time to adjust any of the settings you need for your account.

Kindest Regards,

We are happy to help. To adjust any PHP configuration settings, you would simply need to make a change to your php.ini file. For a tutorial on how to do so, take a look at the following: How to update your local php settings As this may need to be changed across your whole site, se sure to also make your php.ini file recursive as well.

As the script that requires this to be enabled deeper within your directory structure, you may need to make your php.ini file recursive as by default, it only effects the directory that it is in. Also, here is a similar question we answered, where someone had to Increase the max_input_vars in php.ini, and make it recursive.
