PHP is amongst the most widely used open-source scripting languages. It’s rather popular because it’s free software, which you can use to develop responsive sites such as social networks, online shops or e-learning sites rather than static HTML sites. A PHP module must be available on the server where a PHP website is hosted so that its code can be interpreted. As there are no license taxes for this type of module and the language itself provides limitless possibilities for the Internet apps that you develop, there are hundreds of millions of PHP websites. Moreover, there are heaps of open-source PHP-based scripts, which you can use for your sites without the need to have any coding abilities. Since there’re several PHP versions, you should verify that the very same version that you used whilst developing your site is installed on the server too.
PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Cloud Web Hosting
Our cloud web hosting servers support different versions of PHP, which implies that your sites will run without any problem no matter if your scripts are outdated. We accept the fact that an old site doesn’t automatically mean a vulnerable one as you may have performed lots of mods to its source code. This is why we support PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 and you can decide which one will be enabled for your shared hosting account. The version can be changed with one click of the mouse through your Hepsia Control Panel and the update will take effect instantaneously. In case you want to run both older and newer scripts, there is even a possibility to use a different PHP version for each domain of yours simultaneously.
