To increase the upload limit, there are two settings: `max image size kb` and `max attachment size kb`. Note, you may also need to deal with nginx/apache depending on how you’re set up.

You’re correct. I’m looking to increase the upload limit. I’ve changed those 2 settings as you mentioned, but I suspect I need to do the nginx/apache side… however, these are the instructions I can’t find.  
I’m beginning to wonder if it was foolish of me to do the one-click install with Digital Ocean 😕
