💡 Tips for Store Owners

  • ✅ Increase upload size limits if you’re uploading large images, videos, or product files.
  • ✅ Use a higher memory limit if you’re running multiple heavy plugins or page builders.
  • ✅ Set max_execution_time higher if you’re importing large product catalogs.
  • ✅ Leave allow_url_fopen enabled if you’re using external API integrations.
