Memory Limit Manager

ਵੇਰਵਾ

Memory Limit Manager makes it incredibly easy to configure your memory limits without manually editing wp-config.php. With a beautiful, user-friendly interface and powerful features, you can increase memory limits with a single click.

Key Features

  • One-Click Updates – Change memory limits with a single button click
  • Quick Presets – Common configurations (128M/256M, 256M/512M, 512M/1G, 1G/2G)
  • Automatic wp-config.php Backups – Creates timestamped backups of your wp-config.php file before any changes (format: wp-config.php.backup-YYYY-MM-DD-HHMMSS). Keeps 5 most recent backups and auto-restores on failure
  • Conflict Detection – Identifies if memory limits are defined elsewhere
  • System Diagnostics – File permissions and writability checks
  • Manual Fallback – Copy-paste code if automatic updates don’t work
  • Opcode Cache Clearing – Immediate effect after changes
  • Beautiful UI – Modern, card-based layout with real-time validation

Why Use This Plugin?

Manually editing wp-config.php can be:
– Intimidating for non-technical users
– Error-prone (syntax errors can break your site)
– Difficult to verify if changes took effect

Memory Limit Manager solves all these problems with a safe, user-friendly interface that handles everything automatically.

What It Does

This plugin allows you to configure two WordPress memory limit constants:
1. WP_MEMORY_LIMIT – Controls memory available on the frontend (default: 40M)
2. WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT – Controls memory available in admin area (default: 256M)

Increasing these values can help resolve:
– “Memory exhausted” errors
– Plugin/theme activation failures
– Image upload problems
– Slow admin performance

Automatic Backup System

For your safety, the plugin automatically backs up your wp-config.php file before making any changes:

  • Backup File Format: wp-config.php.backup-2026-01-15-223045 (timestamped)
  • Location: Same directory as your wp-config.php file
  • Number of Backups: Keeps the 5 most recent backups, auto-deletes older ones
  • Automatic Restore: If any error occurs during update, your original wp-config.php is automatically restored
  • Manual Restore: You can manually restore any backup file via FTP/cPanel if needed

This means you can update memory limits with confidence, knowing your configuration is always protected.

Security

  • Nonce verification for CSRF protection
  • Capability checks (administrator-only access)
  • Input sanitization and validation
  • Secure file operations with error recovery

ਅਕਸਰ ਪੁੱਛੇ ਜਾਂਦੇ ਸਵਾਲ

Is this plugin free?

Yes! Memory Limit Manager is 100% free and open source.

Will this work with my hosting?

Yes, as long as your wp-config.php file is writable. Most hosting providers allow this.

Can I undo changes?

Absolutely! The plugin automatically backs up your wp-config.php file (not your entire site) before making any changes.

Backup files are named like: wp-config.php.backup-2026-01-15-223045

You can find them in the same directory as your wp-config.php file. The plugin keeps the 5 most recent backups. To restore manually, simply rename a backup file back to wp-config.php via FTP or cPanel File Manager.

What if automatic updates don’t work?

No problem! The plugin provides a manual configuration option with copy-paste code that you can add to wp-config.php via FTP or cPanel.

What exactly gets backed up?

Only your wp-config.php file is backed up – NOT your entire site, database, or other files. This is a safety measure specific to the configuration file that gets modified. The backup happens automatically every time you update memory limits.

Is it safe to use?

Absolutely! The plugin follows WordPress security best practices, creates automatic wp-config.php backups, and validates all input before making changes. If anything goes wrong during an update, your original wp-config.php is automatically restored.

Does it work with multisite?

Yes, the plugin is multisite compatible.

Will it conflict with other plugins?

No, the plugin includes conflict detection and will warn you if memory limits are defined elsewhere (themes, mu-plugins, or other plugins).

What values should I use?

Use the Quick Presets as a starting point:
* Small sites (blogs): 128M / 256M
* Standard sites: 256M / 512M
* Large sites (e-commerce): 512M / 1G
* Enterprise sites: 1G / 2G
