Identifying the WordPress PHP version and configuration limits is simple from your WordPress dashboard.
To start, you will need to carry out the following:
- Navigate to the Tools > Site Health section within your WordPress dashboard.
- Click on the “info” tab
- Access the server section to have a view of the various server configuration limits
- Also access the Database section to view the MySQL version
You may the compare your PHP configuration limits with our recommended limits, of which are outlined below:
| Setting | Value |
| PHP version | 5.6 |
| Mysql | 5 |
| memory_limit | 128M |
| max_execution_time | 600 |
| post_max_size | 64M |
If any of the limits within your website environment are lower that these, we recommend consulting your hosting provider to raise them for you.
