Hi guys
I updated max_input_vars to 5000, and I can see it clearly on server listings.
But I can’t get the EES to recognise the change. It still shows as 1000 on ESS > System Info.
I have tried copying ini file to plugin directory, with no luck. Is there any other way I can force EES to recognise the update?
thanks
Chris

Hi Chris,
EE readers the max_input_vars value using ini_get('max_input_vars'); so its read directly from your server.
If System info (and the message in the admin) still shows 1000 then the changes you applied is not being applied site wide. It may clearly show 5000 on your server listings but that value is not being used within the /plugins/ directory, or possibly within sub-directories of /plugins/.
Since you applied the above change have you restarted Apache?

Hi Tony, thanks for the reply.
I restarted the server. No change unfortunately. I even tried copying the ini file and placing it in /plugins/ directory – didn’t change.
is there anything else i can try?
regards

Hi Chris,
You can see if WordPress can recognize your updated max_input_vars by installing these two plugins:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/debug-bar/
https://wordpress.org/plugins/debug-bar-console/
Then you input the following into the Debug Bar Console’s PHP tab:
echo ini_get('max_input_vars');
and click Run.

Thanks Josh, those plugins were useful.
In the end I found this work around: added a page in my html folder .user.ini (dot-user-dot-ini). On that page I added the code:
max_input_vars = 3000
Worked for me.
regards
