PHP, which is a backronym for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, is one of the most popular dynamic programming languages available out there. Any site or web-based app built on PHP will run on a given web server provided that a PHP module is installed, which makes the language absolutely universal and it is scarcely a surprise that there are a few million servers that support it and 100s of millions of PHP-driven sites running on them. PHP is preferred over HTML because it permits you to develop an interactive website with loads of different options. A PHP-based community site, for example, will display different web content to each user regardless of the fact that the URL will stay the same. By contrast, HTML-based websites are static and the content on the pages can be edited only manually. Just like any other piece of software, PHP has several versions and the version that was used while setting up a specific website must be set up on the server in order for the site to run properly.

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

Our shared hosting servers support several PHP versions, which goes to say that your websites will run without any problems no matter if your scripts are out of date. We acknowledge the fact that an old site does not inevitably imply a vulnerable one as you may have performed a lot of source code modifications. That’s why we support PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 and you can select which version will be active for your web hosting account. You can change the version with just one click in your Hepsia 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 of your domains simultaneously.

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

It is our unvarying belief that years spent developing a site shouldn’t go down the tube, which suggests that if you order a semi-dedicated server from our company, you’ll be able to run any script, no matter if it is new or old. In contrast to a lot of hosting vendors, we support several different versions of PHP on our ground-breaking cloud platform – 4, 5 and 7. You will not only have the ability to enable the version that you need from your Hepsia Control Panel, but you will also have the option to pick a different PHP version for each individual website. This can be accomplished simply by inserting an .htaccess file in the given site’s root folder. You can change the version either for a single website or for the account itself and the new settings will take effect in less than a few minutes. With our web hosting services, you can rest assured that you won’t ever bump into any website incompatibility impediments.
