How do i edit php ini in whm?

I want to change the limit of the PHP POST array from 1000 to 6000. Is there any way to do that? I searched it and found that I should change some variables in php.ini but the problem is that I did not find the directory of the file in my cPanel:

Your server's php.ini file is located at /usr/local/lib/php.ini.

This line is from the CPanel documentation but i could not find this directory in my cpanel even after i show the hidden files???? can anybody help me locating this file?

If you're on a shared hosting environment you won't have access to the php.ini to make these changes, if you need access, a virtual private server (VPS) or a dedicated server may be a better option if you're confident in managing it yourself.

Alternatively if you create a new file called .htaccess in your root of your web directory (Ensure it doesn't contain a .txt extension if using notepad to create the file) and copy something like this inside.

php_value settingToChange 6000

This will only work if your hosting provider let's you override the certain config value. Best to ask if it doesn't work after trying.

I had the same issue in cPanel 92.0.3 and it was solved through this solution:

In cPanel go to the below directory

software --> select PHP version--> option--> upload_max_filesize 

Then choose the optional size to upload your files.

In cPanel search for php, You will find "Select PHP version" under Software.

Software -> Select PHP Version -> Switch to Php Options -> Change Value -> save.

You could try to find it via the command line.

find / -type f -name "php.ini"

Or you could add the following to a .htaccess file in the root of your site.

php_value max_input_vars 6000
php_value suhosin.get.max_vars 6000
php_value suhosin.post.max_vars 6000
php_value suhosin.request.max_vars 6000

You cant do it on shared hosting , Add ticket to support of hosting for same ( otherwise you can look for dedicated server where you can manage anything )
