Hi,

After some checking, it seems that it indeed has to do with php.inisettings.

however, it appears that you can overwrite the settings in an individual
script by adding

ini_set("memory_limit","12M"); (or another number)

This solved the problem on my 1.5.2 blog, where i added it into
admins-function.php

Okie.but which file in 2.0 should i make this change to?
