PHP, which is a metacronym for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, is amongst the most famous coding languages available out there. Any site or app built with PHP will run on a given server provided that a PHP module is enabled, which makes the language truly universal and it’s not that surprising that there are actually several million web servers that support it and 100s of millions of PHP-powered websites running on them. PHP is preferred over HTML because it enables you to set up a dynamic site with an enormous number of features. A PHP-based community site, for instance, will display unique web content to each visitor in spite of the fact that the URL will stay unchanged. By contrast, HTML-based sites are static and the page content can be updated only manually. Just like any other piece of software, PHP has different versions and the version that was used while building a specific website must be enabled on the web server so that the site can run properly.
PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Website Hosting
Our website hosting servers support different PHP versions, which goes to say that your websites will work without any problems no matter if your PHP-based scripts are outdated. We accept the fact that an old website doesn’t always mean a vulnerable one as you may have implemented a lot of mods to its source code. That is the reason why we support PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 and you can decide which one will be active for your shared hosting account. You can change the version with one click within your Hepsia hosting Control Panel and the update will be applied straight away. In case you’d like to run both older and newer 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
It is our steadfast conviction that several years spent setting up a site should not be lost, which suggests that if you order a semi-dedicated server from us, you will be able to use any script, irrespective of whether it’s old or new. Unlike a lot of web hosts, we support several different versions of PHP on our innovative cloud platform – 4, 5 and 7. Not only will you be able to activate the required version via your Hepsia Control Panel, but you’ll also have the opportunity to pick a different PHP version for each website. This can be accomplished merely by placing an .htaccess file within the given site’s root directory. You can change the version not only for a single website, but also for the account itself and the new settings will be applied in just a couple of minutes. With our web hosting services, you can be certain that you will never bump into any site incompatibility obstacles.
