Server Requirements
To use Shock Theme you need a few services running, configured correctly and ready to host a WordPress site. If you have questions about the availability of these features, contact support for your web hosting service.
The following requirements are strictly required:
- Web Server Available
- PHP 7.4 or higher
- WordPress 5.8 or higher
- MySQL 5 or higher
PHP Requirements
Shock Theme has been thoroughly tested to make sure everything works fine. The following requirements were noted with excellence in overall performance.
We recommend that you configure your server like this:
| PHP Memory Limit | 256M or greater |
|---|---|
| PHP Post Max Size | 100M or greater |
| PHP Max Input Vars | 3000 or greater |
| Upload Max File Size | 100M or greater |
| Max Execution Time | 900 or greater |
| Max Input Time | 900 or greater |
These are suggested values, it may happen that you have limits smaller than this and everything works perfectly.
Your server will be more demanding, when editing very long pages, saving entries in WordPress with a lot of data and in the process of importing demos, where a lot of data is processed.
Tip
Many issues you may run into such as white screen, demo content fails when importing, empty page content, theme not being saved and other similar issues are all related to low PHP configuration limits.
The solution is to increase PHP limits. You can do this yourself if you have the necessary skills, or contact your hosting provider and ask them to increase these limits to the minimum required.
