PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support
What's the difference between PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8? Why is it preferable to have them all at hand? How do you switch between them?
PHP is among the most widely used web development languages. It’s highly popular since it’s free software, which can be used to build interactive websites such as community sites, e-commerce portals or online learning websites as opposed to static HTML websites. A PHP module should be enabled on the server where a PHP-driven site is hosted so that its code can be ‘deciphered’. Since there are no license charges for this sort of module and the language itself provides endless options for the applications that you develop, there are hundreds of millions of PHP-driven websites. Furthermore, there are a huge number of PHP scripts, which you can use for your sites without needing to possess any coding know-how. Given the fact that there are different PHP versions, you have to check whether the same version that you used while building your site is activated on the web server as well.
PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Cloud Hosting
Our cloud hosting servers support several PHP versions, which goes to say that your sites will run without any problems even if your scripts are outdated. We realize that an old website does not inevitably suggest a vulnerable one as you may have carried out lots of mods to its source code. That 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. You can change the version with just one single mouse click within your Hepsia hosting Control Panel and the update will be applied momentarily. If you want to run both newer and older scripts, there is even a possibility to use a different version of PHP for each domain name of yours at the same time.
