BuddyPress.org

Okay, I will try to add the php.ini file. I spoke to tech support at 1and1. They said even if you try to upgrade your php memory limit, they have it hard set to 30 MB. I used the “define” function in the wp-config file to set the memory limit, but I will try the php.ini file and see if that works. I’ve used it before and it’s worked for other sites, so maybe that’s the issue. My goal with this post though, was to get a handle on exactly how much memory BuddyPress needs to run efficiently at the base install level, with no content or users, and then understand why or why not it would need more memory based on new data in the database and increased user base.
