    • Hey, what's up @Lisa Ciesniewski

      I am fine, thank you. Hope you are fine too :)

      The 200 MB is the file size upload limit on your server. You will have to increase the value of the upload_max_filesize in your php.ini if you want to upload larger files.

      If you are on a shared or cloud hosting, you will have to modify the .htaccess file or contact your hosting provider to do it for you if allowed. Some providers will not allow you to increase your file size upload limit.

      If you are on a vps or dedicated server, you can do it yourself in your WHM. It's easy.

      For your reference, here is how I set mine. I am on a dedicated server:

      • memory_limit = 4096M      ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume
      • post_max_size = 4096M      ; Maximum size of POST data that PHP will accept.
      • upload_max_filesize = 4096M       ;Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.

      Note: 4096M allows to upload up to 1GB of video file

      Your max upload will be limited to 1/4 (quarter) the size of the max allowed upload and memory limit as set in the php.ini

      1GB (1024MB) is the 1/4 of 4096M.

      You don't need to set your file size upload limit with the same value as mine. It was just to give you an idea.

      Please set it up with a value that best fits your need, taking into consideration your server resources and perfomance.

      Hope i have helped you.
