title: Define php.ini path with .htaccess inside a Wordpress theme to change upload_file_size?
body: <p>I have a wordpress blog. I made a custom page-template that allows users to upload files to my server. Just a simple php script which connects to my server with a form to select a file, blabla.. you know!</p>
  
  <p>However the upload-feature doesn't make any sense with a max_upload_filesize of 20mb. 
  Now i want to change that. According to my hosting-provider it's REALLY EASY, but i think for normal people without experience in that field it's not. Anyway...</p>
  
  <p>they told me i should create a .htaccess file where my upload-script is housed. So that's actually in my wordpess theme folder.</p>
  
  <p>in the .htaccess file i should place "suPHP_ConfigPath" and the path to this directory.</p>
  
  <p>so in my case this would be: (at least i think that's the path)</p>
  
  <pre><code>suPHP_ConfigPath /clientdata/n5200-2-dynamic/a/l/mydomain.com/www/wp-content/themes/mytheme/
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Moreover i should create a php.ini file in the same directory that says:</p>
  
  <pre><code>upload_max_filesize = 500M ;
  post_max_size = 500M ;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I did all of that and even created a info.php file in the same directory to check if the thing worked. However the php_info tells me still that the upload-size is set to 20mb.</p>
  
  <p>Did I get anything wrong here? Do you guys have an idea what I'm doing wrong?
  Does the php_info in that case even tell me the truth and the script should normally work? or should the php_info tell me that the size is set to the value I changed it to?</p>
