Recommended PHP Server Settings to Install Elementor Addons
To ensure smooth performance when using Xpro Elementor Addons and the Xpro Theme Builder for Elementor, your WordPress website should follow the recommended PHP configuration settings.
Proper server configuration helps prevent common issues such as:
- Blank screen errors
- Failed demo or template imports
- Plugin installation problems
- Slow Elementor editor performance
Setting the recommended limits improves compatibility with Elementor Page Builder, Elementor widgets, and free Elementor templates.
If you are unsure how to adjust these settings, you can contact your hosting provider and ask them to update your server configuration.
Recommended PHP Settings
For the best experience with Xpro Elementor Addons and Elementor Theme Builder, make sure your server meets the following PHP configuration values:
- upload_max_filesize: 40M
- post_max_size: 128M
- max_execution_time: 180
- memory_limit: 256M
- max_input_vars: 2000
Increasing these values allows WordPress and Elementor to process larger files, templates, and theme builder layouts more efficiently.
Note: If your server is slow, increasing the max_execution_time value can help avoid timeouts during template imports or plugin installation.

PHP Version 7.4 or higher
Using an updated PHP version improves compatibility with WordPress, Elementor Page Builder, and Elementor add-on plugins.

One simple way is to install the WordPress phpinfo() extension, which displays detailed server configuration information.
Alternatively, you can contact your hosting provider for assistance with checking or updating your server settings.

By following the recommended PHP settings, you can avoid performance issues and ensure that Xpro Elementor Addons and the Xpro Theme Builder work reliably with your WordPress installation.
