PHP is among the most commonly used reflective programming languages. It’s extremely popular since it’s free software, which you can use to develop interactive websites such as social networking sites, e-commerce portals or online teaching portals instead of static HTML websites. A PHP module must be enabled on the server where a PHP-driven site is hosted so that its source code can be interpreted. Since there aren’t any license taxes for this sort of module and the language offers limitless possibilities for the Internet apps that you set up, there’re 100s of millions of PHP sites. Moreover, there are a lot of PHP scripts, which you can use for your sites without needing to possess any coding knowledge. Given the fact that there’re a handful of PHP versions, you ought to verify whether the same version that you used while developing your site is enabled on the server too.

This is why we support PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 and you can select which version will be active for your shared web hosting account. The version can be changed with just one single click of the mouse inside your Hepsia Control Panel and the update will be applied instantly.

In case you have a site created using a previous PHP version and you’ve put time and energy into developing it, filling security breaches and inputting page content, you’ll need to find a hosting service that can support it, since the majority of web hosts these days support only the newest PHP version and abandon the earlier ones. We, on the other hand, have decided to allow you to select the exact version that your very own websites need. Our Linux semi-dedicated hosting support PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8, which implies that you’ll be able to run both older and newer scripts without forfeiting any customizations or frittering away time and efforts trying to make your websites compatible with the web hosting environment. The current version can be changed through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and such a change will affect the whole semi-dedicated server account, but you will also be able to pick a different version of PHP for each single website that you host in your account by using an .htaccess file.
