PHP is one of the most commonly used open-source programming languages. It is very popular as it’s free software, which can be used to develop interactive sites such as social networks, e-shops or e-learning sites rather than static HTML sites. A PHP module should be installed on the web server where a PHP-powered site is hosted so that its PHP code can be ‘deciphered’. Since there aren’t any license fees for this sort of module and the language itself offers unlimited possibilities for the apps that you build, there’re hundreds of millions of PHP-driven websites. In addition, there are a lot of open-source PHP scripts, which you can use for your sites without needing to have any programming skills. Given the fact that there’re a couple of versions of PHP, you must confirm whether the same exact version that you used whilst creating your website is available on the server too.
PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Shared Hosting
Our shared hosting servers support different PHP versions, which suggests that your websites will work flawlessly no matter if your PHP-based scripts are out of date. We accept the fact that an old site does not necessarily suggest a vulnerable one as you may have done plenty of mods to its code. That’s why we support PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 and you can choose which version will be enabled for your shared hosting account. The version can be changed with only one click of the mouse in your Hepsia hosting Control Panel and the update will be applied straight away. If you wish to run both newer and older scripts, there’s even an option to use a different version of PHP for each domain name of yours simultaneously.
PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated hosting plans support multiple PHP versions, which goes to say that you’ll be able to run all the web applications that you’ve created over the years. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which comes with each account, will allow you to activate the required version with one single mouse click. You can select between PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8. If you wish to host multiple websites under a single account and they have special requirements connected with the hosting environment, you’ll be able to pick a different version for each one of them regardless of which version has been enabled for the account itself. This is possible thanks to our custom-created cloud hosting platform, which permits us to run several PHP versions all at once. By contrast, most hosting providers usually support one, rarely two versions.
