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 better to have them all available? How could you switch between them?
PHP, which stands for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, is one of the most commonly used general-purpose web programming languages that are available out there. Any site or Internet app created with PHP will run on a given web server provided that a PHP module is activated, which renders the language truly universal and it comes as little surprise that there are a couple of million web servers that support it and hundreds of millions of PHP-driven websites running on them. PHP is preferred over HTML because it permits you to build a dynamic serving site with numerous different features. A PHP-based social networking site, for example, will show unique web content to each visitor although the page URL will be the same. In contrast, HTML-based websites are static and the content on the pages can be updated only manually. Just like any other piece of software, PHP has different versions and the version that was used whilst building a specific website must be configured on the server so that the site can run properly.

You can change the version either for a single site or for the account itself and the new settings will take effect in only a few minutes. With our hosting services, you can be sure that you will never face any site compatibility impediments.
