System Requirement

If your website is running smoothly, technically installing the AshVisual Theme does not require special system requirements. Ensure the following php.ini configuration so that the installation process can run smoothly.

max_execution_time = 120
max_input_time = 120
memory_limit = 128M
upload_max_filesize = 16M
post_max_size = 16M

OJS 3.4.0-0 and earlier require the php-exec() function to be enabled in order to install and update plugins. For security reasons, it is recommended to disable this function after the process is complete.
