Navigate to the Advanced tab and locate the PHP configuration section. From there, you can click &#8220;Extend execution time&#8221; to temporarily increase resource limits for intensive tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why am I seeing PHP errors on my website?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>PHP errors typically occur when a script requires more resources than the current server configuration allows. This is common during:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Uploading high-resolution media files.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Installing large or complex plugins.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Migrating a website from another host.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Running full site backups.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do I fix the &#8220;Maximum execution time exceeded&#8221; error?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The &#8220;Maximum execution time&#8221; is a limit on how long a single script can run. If a task like a large import takes too long, the server stops it to maintain performance. You can resolve this within your hosting settings by following this step:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code><em>Error message example: Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded<\/em><\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Extend the maximum execution size. For details, see <a href=\"https:\/\/elementor.com\/help\/temporarily-increase-the-maximum-execution-time-of-your-elementor-hosted-site\/\">Temporarily increase the maximum execution time of your Elementor Hosted site<\/a>. <br>After extending the limit, retry the task.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do I fix the &#8220;Allowed memory size exhausted&#8221; error?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><code><em>Error message example: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of X bytes exhausted<\/em><\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What this means<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This error occurs when a plugin or script attempts to use more memory than allocated by the server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Elementor Host provides a memory limit of 1024MB. Because this limit is significantly higher than standard hosting environments, this error usually indicates a plugin conflict or inefficient script.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to resolve it<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Deactivate recently installed plugins to check for conflicts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Avoid running multiple heavy plugins that perform similar functions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ensure all plugins and themes are updated to their latest versions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If the issue persists after checking for conflicts, contact Support for further investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do I fix the &#8220;The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive&#8221; error<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><code><em>Error message example: The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini<\/em><\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What this means<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You are attempting to upload a file that exceeds the single-file upload limit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Elementor Host, the maximum upload size per file is 256MB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Recommended solutions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Optimize your media<\/strong><br>Before uploading large files, compress images or videos to reduce file size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Use external video hosting (recommended)<\/strong><br>For video files larger than 256MB, upload the file to a video hosting service such as YouTube or Vimeo and embed it on your website instead of uploading it directly. This improves performance and reduces bandwidth usage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Upload files through the Media Library<\/strong><br>Always upload files through the WordPress Media Library to ensure proper indexing and compatibility with Elementor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<p>[callout type=&#8221;note&#8221;]Uploading very large media files directly to your website may impact storage usage and site performance.
