• I have been running WP for many yrs but I am far from an expert user. I just got this error message when trying to access wp-admin after signing in.

    Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 48608 bytes) in /home/fshfanat/public_html/wp-includes/theme.php on line 180

    What would cause this and how might I fix it? I cant think of anything I might have done that would cause this. I havent done anything on the site for awhile except update some plugins.

    Thank you.

    doing this:

    Open/Edit the (wp-settings.php) file and look for the below settings and change accordingly to increase the memory limit to your desired values. It works magic for me, and i hope it does for you too.

    FROM
    ========
    if ( !defined(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’) )
    define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’32M’);

    TO
    =====
    if ( !defined(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’) )
    define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’80M’);

    Fixed my issue. Any idea what might have caused this issue? Like I said it has been up and working flawlessly for a few yrs.

    Plugin using more assets? I don’t really know. Glad it is now working.
