In what scenarios would it be appropriate to modify PHP settings using .htaccess directives instead of the php.ini file?

In scenarios where you do not have access to the php.ini file or need to apply specific settings only to a particular directory or website, it would be appropriate to modify PHP settings using .htaccess directives. This allows for more granular control over PHP configurations without affecting other websites or applications running on the same server. ``` <IfModule mod_php7.c> php_value upload_max_filesize 20M php_value post_max_size 25M php_value max_execution_time 300 </IfModule> ```
