Maximum upload file size not reflecting to phpinfo()

My problem is that when I check to wp-admin/media-new.php I see Maximum upload file size: 8 MB. Now I change the php.ini located at /usr/lib/php.ini I change the upload_max_filesize to 64M and post_max_size 64M. Then when I checked back to wp-admin/media-new.php it is now 'Maximum upload file size: 15M' it should be 64M

I even try following this http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-increase-the-maximum-file-upload-size-in-wordpress/ but it doesn't help it. it looks like it is limited to 15M? I try to change the post_max_size to 14M then it reads now on wp-admin/media-new.php to 'Maximum upload file size: 14M' it looks like it only limits to 15M. I restarted the apache but still it won't work and it only shows 15M

I checked the phpinfo() and the file loaded is correct which is /usr/lib/php.ini

Is there any settings in wordpress that is limiting the upload file size except on the network setting? no right? What could be the problem?

Are you using Wordpress MU? – kav
Check your theme functions file for lines like these @ini_set( 'upload_max_size' , '15M' ); @ini_set( 'post_max_size', 15M'); – Mihai
@unixarmy Did you mean if I use multisite? Yes I used multisite and the issue is in the main site and not in the subsite. – Kimchuy
@Mihai I already checked but I have not seen that code on my theme functions. – Kimchuy

I Fixed my issues. Here are what I've learned:

1) Make sure there are no conflict with your php.ini.. I checked my phpinfo() and the file loaded is /usr/local/lib/php.ini however there is php.ini placed in the wp-admin/ folder so I deleted it and this cause overriding the setting.

2) If you are running multisite make sure that 'Max upload file size' option in wp-admin/network/settings.php is correct based on your desire cause this will reflect in the main site.

You can use this cod ein .htaccess file.

<IfModule mod_php5.c>
php_value post_max_size           128M
php_value upload_max_filesize     128M
php_value memory_limit            500M
</IfModule>

Change file size as your requirement.

I hope this will work for you.
