2. PHP Configuration Setup

If you have direct access to your server's PHP configuration, update the relevant values in your php.ini file. If you don't have access to modify server PHP settings directly, you can try setting these values through your .htaccess file:

php_value max_input_vars 4000
php_value max_execution_time 600
php_value memory_limit 512M
php_value max_input_time 400
php_value upload_max_filesize 64M
