Uploading a Theme

  • MAJOR newbie to all of this… trying to upload a purchased theme (Qaween), and getting an error message each time: “413 Request Entity Too Large.” There’s a note below the upload button that says the max file size is 25MB; my zip file is 12.9MB. What am I missing?

  • That is a limit imposed by your web host. I would contact them and ask them how you can upload the theme or simply find a new host.

    Wordpress has a list of recommended hosting providers here.

    Try removing unused large files from your theme, or try compressing images included with your theme. You also can try uploading your theme through cpanel using file manager or FTP using FTP program like Filezilla.

    Can you try to increase memory_limit, post_max_size and memory_limit in php.ini

    memory_limit = 64M
    upload_max_filesize = 64M
    post_max_size = 128M

    If still you can error. I recommend you to upload theme using Cpanel -> File Manager in wp-content/themes folder and unzip the Theme. Then Activate theme for WordPress Admin and Remove Zip from Themes Folder.
