The PHP developers recently released version 8.1.18 that fixes several bugs. We’ve upgraded the PHP 8.1 series on our servers as a result.
Customers should not notice any changes, but as always, don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any trouble.
We’ve added support for the PHP 8.2 series for our hosting customers, and you can now select it in the My Account control panel.
We always recommend using the most recent PHP version that’s compatible with your scripts (we’re using PHP 8.2 on this blog, for example) — but if you try a new version and you have any problems, you can instantly switch back to the older version. We currently support PHP 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 8.0, 8.1, and 8.2.
Older PHP versions 5.5, 5.6, and 7.0 are still available on the servers, but are no longer supported and can’t be chosen by customers who are already using a newer version. You should update if you’re using one of those (you’ll get nagging email messages from us about it).
As always, don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any trouble.
