If you are experiencing Memory Exhausted errors on your WordPress installation, it’s usually due to a plugin, theme or other script exceeding the default allocated memory size limit.
The solution is to increase your PHP Memory limit. HostPapa VPS users can adjust the memory limit by making a change to the WordPress wp-config.php file.
Log in to your HostPapa Dashboard and in the top navigation menu, select My cPanel.
Now select File Manager.
Locate the wp-config.php file in your WordPress folder. Right click the file and select Edit.
Now add the following code, just before the line that says ‘That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging.’
define( 'WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M' );
Save the file, and head back to WordPress – the memory error should now be resolved.
If your WordPress installation is running on a HostPapa shared/reseller service, you will need to resolve the issue a different way.
In your cPanel, click Software > Select PHP Version.
Now click Switch to PHP options.
Find and click the memory_limit setting, which allows you to edit the option. Use the dropdown menu to select the new limit. Click Apply, then Save.
