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 best to have them all at hand? How can you switch between them?
PHP is among the most widely used general-purpose scripting languages. It is extremely popular since it’s free software, which you can use to build interactive sites such as social networking websites, e-commerce portals or online learning portals instead of static HTML-based websites. A PHP module should be present on the web server where a PHP-driven website is hosted so that its source code can be ‘deciphered’. As there are no license fees for this type of module and the language provides unlimited options for the Internet applications that you develop, there’re 100s of millions of PHP-driven websites. In addition, there’re a large number of open-source PHP scripts, which you can use for your websites without the need to have any programming experience. Since there’re a few PHP versions, you must make certain that the same exact version that you used while building your website is available on the web server too.

PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Shared Web Hosting
We have made the decision not to restrict our current and prospective clients from selecting the PHP version that their websites will be using, which goes to say that if you buy a
shared web hosting package from us, you’ll be able to pick between versions 4, 5 and 7, not only for the account itself, but also for each single domain hosted by you. This can be accomplished with only one mouse click through our custom-built Hepsia hosting Control Panel via which all shared accounts are managed, which is the reason why you will not have to possess any coding or technical knowledge. You will be able to manage sites built with both old and new scripts without any hassle, so if you would like to abandon your current web hosting services provider and switch over to us, you can be sure that all the sites that you have set up through the years will continue to work faultlessly.

PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our
Linux semi-dedicated hosting support multiple versions of PHP, which suggests that you will be able to run all the Internet applications that you have built throughout the years. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which comes bundled with each single semi-dedicated account, will allow you to set the required version with one single click of the mouse. You can select between PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8. If you wish to host multiple sites under the exact same account and they have special requirements connected to the hosting platform, you’ll be able to choose a different version for each one of them no matter which version has been selected for the account as a whole. This is accomplishable owing to our in-house developed cloud hosting platform, which allows us to run multiple PHP versions concurrently. In stark contrast, the vast majority of hosting companies usually support one, in rare cases – two versions.
