Important Update re PHP versions.

We're posting this to let you know that as part of our commitment to providing a reliable and trusted service, we're retiring some Older PHP versions Starting July 2022.

Why is this happening?

End of Life (EOL) versions are no longer supported for security updates, potentially making your shared hosting vulnerable.

Updating to the later PHP versions can also improve performance and stability in some applications.

To prepare for this, we are getting ready to retire the following PHP versions:

5.3, 5.4, 5.5 (versions 5.x)
7.0, 7.1, 7.2 (versions 7.x

Meaning you will need to update your PHP version to either '5.6' or '7.3' or above.

What you need to do now:

Please update your PHP to the highest possible version your website can support by following the simple steps below, you can find more detailed information here.

Changing your PHP Version:

You can change to a different version of PHP by clicking on the 'Switch PHP Version' under 'Web Tools' in your Hosting Control Panel.
To change your version:
Click 'Switch PHP Version'
Select the version of PHP you want from the drop-down list
Click 'Update'

Your site should now run that version

You can also change PHP version in your site .htaccess file adding the line:

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php73 .php (changing 73 to 74 or 80 for example)

I hope this helps?

Regards.
