title: I can't change max_input_vars effectively
body: <p>I'm trying to translate some categories on prestashop 1.6 using php 5.6.
  It says the limit of max_input_vars is set to 1000 and that I need to contact godaddy and pay them 40 euros to change it.</p>
  
  <p>(okay it doesn't say that about the money, I added that after contacting their web support :P)</p>
  
  <p>I was wondering if I could do it myself.</p>
  
  <p>I created my own php.ini and put it on public_html</p>
  
  <pre><code>post_max_size = 20000M
  upload_max_filesize = 20000M
  max_execution_time = 30000
  max_input_time = 60000
  memory_limit = 8000M
  max_input_vars = 8000
  suhosin.post.max_vars = 8000
  suhosin.request.max_vars = 8000
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>No dice.
  Then I put the following lines in .htdocs file</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;IfModule mod_suphp.c&gt;
  suPHP_ConfigPath /home/vasilonet/php.ini
  &lt;/IfModule&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Still nothing. The website refuses to allow me to do translations. It still says the limit is 1000.</p>
  
  <p>I haven't even begun using my website and all these php limitations are really bizarre. What's with the small limits? (e.g. 8MB import limit for mysql files, etc)</p>
