Changing the Default PHP version in cPanel

We maintain our servers on the most current supported version of PHP, but you can always change the PHP version that you want your cPanel to run. 

Please use the step wise guide given below, to make changes in your cPanel account for your domains. But before you proceed any further, there are few important things that you need to know. 

What Happens When You Change The Default PHP Version?

As soon as you change the default PHP version on your shared or reseller servers, every domain that is set to inherit the PHP version will automatically update itself. Only those domains, that are set to inherit any changes to in the PHP version, will be changed. Websites that have updated CMS softwares like WordPress or Joomla with up-to-date plugins, modules, etc., have little to no chance of having any trouble when there’s a change in PHP version. 

The PHP version of your domain can be determined from your cPanel account.

  1. Go to the cPanel’s Software Section and choose MultiPHP Manager to further use the MultiPHP Manager interface:

  2. The MultiPHP Manager will show a list of all of your cPanel account’s domains, with their selected PHP versions in the next columnThe domains that are set to inherit the default PHP version, will appear like in the image below:

  3. The current default PHP version details on the server, will be visible on the top of the MultiPHP Manager page, right above the domains list. It is called the System PHP version as apparent in the following image:
