Possible error message

You might experience an upload error message. Depending on the type of hosting service you have and the provider, you might be able to fix the problem. Google this phrase, and you’ll find plenty of solutions. They usually involve editing the htaccess file or php.ini file. This short video provides some useful tips. You could contact your hosting company and ask them to increase the file size limit.

Auto Installation

If you prefer an easier solution, click the Auto Installation tab. Enter the URL for your WordPress site (include http:// or https://) and the username and password. Click Activate Plugin, and we’ll take care of the rest.
