Use different PHP versions (multi-PHP) on different domains
Multi-PHP lets you use a different PHP version for each domain on your hosting account. You can assign a PHP version in the .htaccess file of your hosted domain name.
1. Open and follow the steps in this guide: Access and modify your .htaccess file
2. In your domain .htaccess file, place⚠️ the snippet for the PHP versions provided below you want to use on it
⚠️ Important:
- Each .htaccess file has distinct and varied content
- Place your PHP code snippet block snippet at the top of the .htaccess file
- If the top section is full, press ‘Enter’ or ‘Return’ within the file to create space, shifting other snippets downward
- The PHP code snippet block snippet needs to be on a separate line to function properly
To provide a visual, here is an example of the PHP version 7.2 code snippet placed within a .htaccess file:
PHP version 5.6
AddType application/x-lsphp56 .php5 .php4 .php .php3 .php2 .phtml .htm .html
PHP version 7.2
AddType application/x-lsphp72 .php5 .php4 .php .php3 .php2 .phtml .htm .html
PHP version 7.4
AddType application/x-lsphp74 .php5 .php4 .php .php3 .php2 .phtml .htm .html
PHP version 8.0
AddType application/x-lsphp80 .php5 .php4 .php .php3 .php2 .phtml .htm .html
PHP version 8.1
AddType application/x-lsphp81 .php5 .php4 .php .php3 .php2 .phtml .htm .html
PHP version 8.2
AddType application/x-lsphp82 .php5 .php4 .php .php3 .php2 .phtml .htm .html
