I set it to 20000
Depends on which version of php you are using
Look for /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php*.conf to find the version you are
using
Update /etc/php/7.4/apache2/php.ini - substitute your version for 7.4 if
your version is not 7.4
; How many GET/POST/COOKIE input variables may be accepted
;max_input_vars = 1000
max_input_vars = 20000
Restart apache after changing this.
