PHP 4, PHP 5 and PHP 7 Support
What's the difference between PHP 4, PHP 5 and PHP 7? How come it's preferable to have them all at hand? How do you switch between them?
PHP is amongst the most widely used open-source scripting languages. It is rather popular because it’s free software, which can be used to develop responsive websites such as community sites, e-commerce portals or e-learning sites rather than static HTML websites. A PHP module must be installed on the server where a PHP-powered site is hosted so that its source code can be ‘translated’. As there are no license fees for this sort of module and the language itself offers limitless options for the web-based applications that you build, there’re 100s of millions of PHP websites. Also, there’re numerous open-source PHP-based scripts, which you can use for your sites without the need to have any coding skills. Considering the fact that there are several PHP versions, you must make sure that the same version that you used while creating your site is present on the web server too.

PHP 4, PHP 5 and PHP 7 Support in Shared Web Hosting
If you get a
shared web hosting package from us, you will never have to ask yourself if your websites are compatible with the hosting platform, as we offer multiple versions of PHP for the sake of your convenience. The Hepsia Control Panel will allow you to choose PHP 4, PHP 5 and PHP 7 with only one click of the mouse and if you want to change the version, the update will be applied immediately. In this way, years of work on websites built with an older version will not be in vain. Our hosting platform will even allow you to use a different PHP version for each domain name hosted in your account, so you can use newer and older scripts simultaneously. Most hosting companies on the market offer support for one, sometimes for two versions of PHP. In contrast with them, we strongly think that you should be the one to select the version that your own sites will use.
