If you have recently installed the free version of the Wordpress plugin called “All-in-one WP Migration”, used for doing backups and migrations, you have probably came across with the maximum upload size of 16MB, which is very restrictive when you have to migrate a website with many media, users, posts, pages and plugins. So, here is how you can modify this limit without having to pay for it:

1. Enter in the root directory of your Wordpress installation (that with the wp-config.php file);
2. Open the file .htaccess (create if it does not exist);
3. Add to it (it can be at the beginning) the following lines:

   php_value upload_max_filesize 512M
   php_value post_max_size 512M
   php_value max_execution_time 300
   php_value max_input_time 300
   

4. Save the .htaccess file;
5. Check that your maximum upload file has increased to 512MB.

Of course, you can change any value for 512MB in the lines above, if you need to upload larger files.
