PHP, which is an acronym for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, is one of the most widely used interpreted programming languages that are available out there. Any website or app created with PHP will run on a given server as long as a PHP module is installed, which renders the language truly universal and it is not really a big surprise that there are a few million servers that support it and hundreds of millions of PHP sites running on them. What makes PHP preferred over HTML is the fact that it permits you to develop a dynamic serving website with plenty of different options. A PHP-based community web portal, for example, will serve unique content to each user despite the fact that the URL won’t change. In comparison, HTML sites are static and the content on the pages can be edited only manually. Just like any other software program, PHP has different versions and the version that was used while developing a particular website must be enabled on the web server in order for the site to run faultlessly.
PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Web Hosting
With our Linux web hosting, you’ll be able to pick which version of PHP will be enabled for your shared account, as several versions are enabled on our servers. With as little as one click of the mouse, you will be able to switch between PHP 4, 5, 7 and whenever a new version is published in the future, we’ll add it to the Hepsia Control Panel without removing the previous ones. In this way, you will be able to host all the sites that you’ve set up throughout the years. In stark contrast with a lot of other companies, we won’t compel you to update such sites, because a script may be outdated, but this doesn’t mean that it is vulnerable since you may have done modifications to its source code to plug safety loopholes. For your convenience’s sake, you’ll even be able to pick a different PHP version for each site that you host in your account.
