PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support

What's the difference between PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8? How come it's best to have them all available? How could you switch between them?

PHP is one of the most commonly used reflective programming languages. It is extremely popular because it’s free software, which can be used to create interactive websites like community web portals, web shops or online teaching websites as opposed to static HTML-based websites. A PHP module should be enabled on the web server where a PHP-driven website is hosted so that its source code can be ‘decrypted’. As there are no license charges for this type of module and the language itself offers innumerable possibilities for the apps that you build, there are hundreds of millions of PHP-powered websites. Besides, there are an enormous number of PHP scripts, which you can use for your sites without the need to have any coding knowledge. As there are a couple of versions of PHP, you must verify that the same version that you used while creating your site is available on the server as well.

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

Our semi-dedicated hosting support multiple versions of PHP, which goes to say that you’ll be able to run all the Internet applications that you’ve built through the years. The Hepsia Control Panel, which comes bundled with each semi-dedicated account, will permit you to activate the version that you need with one click of the mouse. You can pick between PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8. In case you’d like to host multiple websites under one single account and they have various requirements in connection with the hosting environment, you’ll be able to specify a different version for each of them no matter which version is enabled for the account as a whole. This is possible owing to our custom-developed cloud platform, which allows us to run different PHP versions concurrently. In comparison, the vast majority of hosting suppliers typically offer one, sometimes two versions.
