Issue Summary

My app requires max_input_vars = 9000
Current limit is 4000

I am using nginx. With php.ini: max_input_vars = 9000

Setting in wp-config.php - did not help

Troubleshooting Questions

  • But the issue is generic

  • Are you able to create a new, plain WordPress site in Local and access it in a Browser? YES

  • What Operating System (OS) and OS version is being used? - Windows 10 Pro
