Changing the PHP version

How to choose a PHP 8.x version for a domain in MultiPHP Manager and what to check afterwards.

Mis à jour le 05.10.2026. 2 min de lecture

The servers support several PHP 8.x versions, and you choose the version separately for each domain. You see the available versions in the menu. Newer versions are faster and more secure, but old applications sometimes require an older one.

Changing the version#

  1. In cPanel open Software → MultiPHP Manager.
  2. Tick the domain (or several) in the list.
  3. In the PHP Version menu on the right choose the version you want.
  4. Click Apply.

In some plans the same setting is in Software → Select PHP Version. There you can also enable extensions together with the version: PHP extensions.

What to check after the change#

  • Open the site and test its main functions (login, forms, checkout).
  • Look at the error logs: PHP errors and logs.
  • In WordPress check Tools → Site Health.

Going back to the previous version#

If something stops working, go back to the previous version using the same procedure. The change takes effect immediately.

Available versions and behavior depend on the server settings. If you do not see the version you want, contact us.
