Recommended WordPress Requirements

Before installing WordPress and Avada, ensure your hosting environment meets the recommended requirements for stability, performance, and security. Using up-to-date software versions and proper server settings helps WordPress run efficiently, prevents common issues, and allows Avada’s features to work as intended. This section outlines the recommended WordPress requirements to help you start building your website on a solid, reliable foundation.

Recommended PHP Configuration Limits

Your PHP configuration plays a key role in how smoothly WordPress and Avada run on your website. Having the recommended PHP limits in place helps prevent errors during theme installation, website imports, and page building, while also improving performance and stability.

If your installation experiences issues such as the white screen of death, or your website import fails, etc, this is usually related to low PHP configuration limits. The solution is to increase the PHP limits. You can do this on your own, or contact your web host and ask them to increase those limits to a minimum as follows:

How To Verify Your Current PHP Limits

Before making any changes to your server settings, it’s helpful to know exactly what PHP limits your site is currently using. Avada makes this easy by providing a built-in System Status page that displays key details about your hosting environment and WordPress configuration.

You can verify your servers PHP configuration limits using the Avada System Status page. From the WordPress Sidebar, navigate to Avada > Maintenance > Status.
