PHP Selector in CWP7 is a powerful tool that allows users to select and manage their PHP version and settings on their websites. It provides flexibility and control over the PHP configuration, enabling users to run various PHP versions simultaneously.

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to use the PHP Selector in CWP7:

Step 1: Accessing CWP7 Control Panel

To access the CWP7 Control Panel, open your preferred web browser and navigate to the URL provided by your hosting provider. Login with your username and password to access your account.

Step 2: Navigating to the PHP Selector

Once logged in, locate and click on the “PHP Selector” option, usually found under the “WebServer Settings” section or similar.

Step 3: Selecting a PHP Version

In the PHP Selector interface, you will find a list of available PHP versions. These versions may vary depending on your hosting provider. Select the desired PHP version by clicking on the corresponding radio button.

Step 4: Configuring PHP Extensions and Settings

After selecting the PHP version, you can further customize your PHP configuration by enabling or disabling specific PHP extensions. Check the boxes next to the desired extensions to enable them, or uncheck to disable.

In addition, you can modify the PHP settings by clicking on the “PHP Settings” tab. This allows you to adjust various PHP parameters such as memory limit, file upload size, error reporting, and more.

Step 5: Applying Changes

Once you have made the necessary changes to the PHP version and settings, click on the “Save Changes” button to apply them. CWP7 will automatically restart the webserver to apply the new configuration.

It is important to note that changing the PHP version or configuration may affect the functionality of your website. If any compatibility issues arise, you can always revert to the previous settings using the PHP Selector interface.

Using the PHP Selector in CWP7 gives you the flexibility to adapt to different PHP requirements for your websites. Experimenting with different versions and settings can help optimize your website’s performance and compatibility with specific applications.
