PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support
What's the real difference between PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8? How come it's better to have them all at hand? How do you switch between them?
PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, commonly called PHP, is a popular open-source programming language, which can be used to build dynamic sites with interactive features like bulletin boards, online teaching portals or community websites. In contrast with static HTML-based sites, a PHP-driven website can serve unique web content to each user under the very same page URL. Given the fact that PHP-based web applications can be managed via one Control Panel tool, which you can sign into using any browser, you won’t need any programming abilities or previous experience whatsoever in order to maintain a PHP website. The fact that 100s of millions of sites around the globe are PHP-based is an indication of the popularity and the simplicity of use of the language. You must only confirm if the web server where you host your site supports the very same version of PHP as the one that you used while creating the site.

PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Shared Website Hosting
With our
shared website hosting, you will be able to pick the PHP version that will be enabled for your web hosting account, since we support different versions. With as little as one click of the mouse, you will be able to switch between PHP 4, 5, 7 and anytime a new version is unveiled in the future, we’ll include it in the Hepsia Control Panel without removing the previous ones. In this way, you’ll be able to host all the websites that you have built over the years. In contrast with a lot of other web hosting companies, we will not force you to update such websites, as a script may be out of date, but this doesn’t mean that it’s vulnerable since you may have carried out modifications to its source code to repair safety loopholes. For your convenience’s sake, you’ll even be able to choose a different PHP version for each site that you host in your shared web hosting account.
