I went through the 1 click install Wordpress and tried uploading a theme and it stops loading and asks me if I’m sure I want to do this. It doesn’t give me anything to click on. I’ve read that I have to change the php.ini size limit, but I’ve tried researching on how exactly to do that and I can’t figure it out. Are there any other tutorials I need to do in order to get that fixed? I’m running everything on a Mac. Any help would be appreciated.

On your server you can find the php.ini in /etc/php7-0/
In that file you’ll want to increase the size given for the following variables.
- max_post_size
- upload_max_filesize
After making the changes, restart your web server with the command:
service apache2 restart
