The latest version of PHP5.5 module is offered for all shared hosting accounts by default. Different PHP version can be set by editing the .htaccess file or using the PHP Selector plugin for cPanel, which allows you to easily pick the required version directly from the control panel interface. One of the available PHP versions can be set for each folder related to the domain. Please take following steps to do this:

  • find and run PHP Selector cPanel plugin in the Software section;
  • choose the needed folder and pick available PHP version from the drop-down list then press Submit button;
  • in case you'd like to cancel the changes just press Delete button next to the corresponding entry.
