PHP is amongst the most commonly used general-purpose web programming languages. It’s exceptionally popular since it is free software, which can be used to develop responsive websites such as community portals, online stores or e-learning sites instead of static HTML-based websites. A PHP module must be enabled on the web server where a PHP site is hosted so that its PHP code can be ‘decrypted’. Since there are no license fees for this sort of module and the language provides endless possibilities for the Internet applications that you build, there are 100s of millions of PHP-driven sites. What’s more, there’re tons of open-source PHP-based scripts, which you can use for your websites without the need to have any programming knowledge. As there are a few PHP versions, you have to make certain that the same exact version that you used while developing your website is activated on the web server too.

PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Website Hosting

Our website hosting servers support different versions of PHP, so your sites will work correctly no matter if your scripts are out of date. We accept the fact that an old site does not necessarily imply an insecure one as you may have carried out lots of source code modifications. That’s why we support PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 and you can pick which version will be enabled for your shared web hosting account. The version can be changed with one single mouse click via your Hepsia hosting Control Panel and the update will be applied right away. In case you would like to run both newer and older scripts, there is even a possibility to use a different PHP version for each domain of yours at the same time.

PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Semi-dedicated Hosting

We’re of the opinion that several years spent building a site should not be in vain, so if you get a semi-dedicated server from us, you will be able to use any script, regardless of whether it’s old or new. In stark contrast with lots of hosting suppliers, we support several different versions of PHP on our revolutionary cloud hosting platform – 4, 5 and 7. You will not only be able to enable the version that you need via your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, but you will also have the possibility to pick a different PHP version for each website. The latter can be done merely by placing an .htaccess file into the given site’s root directory. You can change the version either for a single website or for the whole account and the update will be applied in just a few minutes. With our hosting services, you can be sure that you will never run into any site compatibility problems.
