GetHost supports multiple PHP versions on every shared hosting package. You can change your PHP version and enable or disable different PHP modules via the web-based interface in your cPanel. By the time of this tutorial, the default PHP version on our servers is PHP 8.4, but you can apply a different version for your account if your application or script requires it.
To change your PHP version, please log in to your cPanel and refer to the Software and Services section and click on the Select PHP Version icon.
Via the cPanel PHP Selector interface drop down menu you can see all the available PHP versions.
To change the current version of your hosting account, select the desired version and click on the Apply button. This will reload the page and provide you with the option to enable or disable various PHP modules available for the selected PHP version.
We provide a default configuration for the PHP module that you can load by clicking the Use Defaults button, or you can choose your custom configuration.
Along with the module selector, you can edit the php.ini file for your account, which allows you to apply custom PHP variables. This can be done using the Options button.
Via the PHP settings section, you can modify variables such as the max_execution_time and the memory_limit for your PHP executions.
Additionally, you can also easily enable the error_reporting and change upload_max_filesize.
