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 available? How could you switch between them?
PHP, which is a recursive initialism for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, is among the most widely used general-purpose web programming languages available out there. Any website or web-based app built with PHP will run on a given server as long as a PHP module is activated, which makes the language absolutely universal and it’s not very surprising that there are a few million servers that support it and 100s of millions of PHP-powered websites hosted on them. What makes PHP preferred over HTML is the fact that it enables you to develop a responsive website with a lot of different options. A PHP-based social networking website, for example, will display unique content to each user in spite of the fact that the page URL will be the same. In comparison, HTML-based websites are static and the page content can be modified only manually. Like any other software, PHP has different versions and the version that was used while setting up a given website must be installed on the web server in order for the site to run faultlessly.

PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 Support in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our
Linux semi-dedicated hosting packages support multiple PHP versions, which implies that you will be able to run all the applications that you have set up over the years. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which comes bundled with every single semi-dedicated account, will enable 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’d like to host multiple sites under one single account and they have distinct requirements connected with the web hosting environment, you will be able to specify a different PHP version for each and every one of them irrespective of which version has been selected for the account itself. This is possible thanks to our in-house created cloud hosting platform, which permits us to run several PHP versions at the same time. By comparison, the vast majority of hosting providers usually support one, maximum two versions.
