SP Page Builder Table Limitations

SP Page Builder 2 weeks ago

I am using SP Page Builder V5 (Joomla V5); I want to prepare a table within one of my pages: it is the second entry of an 'accordion' and consists of 6 columns; a header block (i.e. 6 text blocks) and more and more rows within that table (exclusively 'heading' entries); after trying to add row no. 25 this page can't be saved anymore (status code 500) - emptying the cache didn't work - are there any limitations to a table or its content? I am intending to add another 20 rows to that table (min.) - please give me an advice how to avoid the error while saving the page... Many thanks in advance... Kind regards Joachim

Hello Joachim,

Thanks for your detailed explanation.

There’s no specific limitation on the number of rows or text blocks in SP Page Builder, but in some cases, very large sections (especially within Accordion or Repeater structures) can hit PHP or server resource limits during saving — resulting in a 500 error.

Here are a few steps you can try to resolve it:

  1. Increase PHP limits from your hosting control panel or php.ini:

    • memory_limit = 256M or higher
    • max_input_vars = 5000 or higher
    • post_max_size = 32M or higher
    • max_execution_time = 300
  2. Save the table content in smaller parts — for example, create two separate accordion items instead of one very large block.

  3. Use a Table Addon (if not already) instead of individual text blocks — this can significantly reduce the number of nested elements in the layout.

  4. Check the server error log — it might show the exact cause of the 500 error.

If the issue continues even after increasing the limits, please share the error log details or a screenshot of your PHP info, and we’ll help you investigate further.

Best regards
