Wordpress has its own memory limit setings, separate from PHP / server configurations, and is set to 40 MB at the time of this writing by the wordpress developers.  Some themes, plugins, etc may mention this as a memory limit issue without explaining which limit is the issue.  If you have confirmed that the PHP memory limit is set correctly via a phpinfo output, then place the following in the wp-config.php file:

define( 'WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '96M' );.  
define( 'WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M' );  // used for admin

You can adjust the number values as needed, just make sure to leave the "M".
