PHP, which is a recursive abbreviation for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, is among the most popular web programming languages out there. Any website or web app created in PHP will run on a given web server on the condition that a PHP module is enabled, which renders the language truly universal and it is by no means a surprise that there are a few million web servers that support it and 100s of millions of PHP-driven sites running on them. PHP is preferred over HTML because of the fact that it permits you to create a dynamic serving website with plenty of features. A PHP-based community portal, for instance, will serve unique content to each user despite the fact that the page URL won’t change. In contrast, HTML-based websites are static and the content on the pages can be modified only manually. Like any other piece of software, PHP has several versions and the version that was used while setting up a specific website must be available on the server in order for the site to run correctly.

That’s why we support PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 and you can pick which one will be enabled for your shared hosting account. You can change the version with one single click from your Hepsia hosting Control Panel and the update will be applied instantly. If you wish to run both newer and older scripts, there’s even an option to use a different version of PHP for each domain name of yours simultaneously.
