Attention WordPress coders.
if you encountered a memory size issue on your site (in my case it was in posts area) such as this one:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 32 bytes) in /home/username/public_html/wp-includes/meta.php on line 827
Try adding this snippet to your functions.php file
//add this to functions.php
function increase_memory_size() {
ini_set(‘memory_limit’, ‘2048M’);
}
add_action( ‘admin_init’, ‘increase_memory_size’, 1 );
That should help your server dedicate (if available) more memory for any given script in admin area…
