Custom PHP Settings

You can customize most PHP settings on your web hosting account.  First, you may want to create a phpinfo.php file to view the current PHP settings.  You can create the file as follows...

- Create a new file called phpinfo.php in your website space
- Edit the file and add <?PHP phpinfo(); ?>
- Save the file and open it in your browser

You can customize the values by creating your own php settings page as follows...

- Create a new file called .user.ini and place in the root of your website
- Edit the file and add php variables and values as needed
- Save the file

You can now view the phpinfo.php again in a browser.  It will show a comparison of master values (which will not change) and the custom values that you specified in the .user.ini file.  Your website will use the custom values.
