Lots of script-driven applications, particularly paid cms, encrypt their files in order to ensure that they will not be reverse engineered or tampered with. The majority of them use an application known as ionCube PHP Encoder to do that, so, in case you buy a paid script and you would like to set it up in a hosting account, a tool known as ionCube Loader has to be present on your server. Without this, you will not be able to install the script or if you somehow find a way to do this, it won't work properly because most of the script code will be encoded to a degree where it can't be interpreted. In this light, you should ensure that ionCube Loader is set up when you get a fresh web hosting account and you wish to work with some paid web application. If you buy a shared hosting account and the tool is not present, it cannot be added as the entire server PHP environment shall have to be compiled again.

IonCube in Hosting

When you get a hosting service through us, it will be set up on our custom cloud platform where ionCube Loader is already present, so you will not have any problems to run any script application that needs the tool to function appropriately. We also supply several different releases of PHP, which means that in case you switch the version, you'll have to enable ionCube once again. Our system remembers the changes you make, so when you switch back to the previous version of PHP which was active for your account, ionCube Loader will already be activated. Both the PHP version as well as the ionCube instrument can be operated from the PHP Configuration area of our Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. Each adjustment that you make takes literally just a mouse-click and it takes effect instantly.

IonCube in Semi-dedicated Servers

Since all of the semi-dedicated server accounts are created on our advanced cluster platform and ionCube Loader is available on it, you shall be able to use any script application that requires the software tool in order to function effectively. With several clicks in the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel you are able to activate or deactivate ionCube for the PHP version that's currently active for your account. As we support multiple versions of PHP concurrently, you will need to do this each and every time you switch to a new release, and when you revert back to a version which you've already used, our system will remember your preference and ionCube Loader will already be activated. If you have multiple sites inside the same account and they require different releases of PHP, you will be able to create a php.ini file in each domain folder and with a couple of lines of code you'll be able to define both the PHP release and the status of ionCube irrespective of what is selected for the web hosting account altogether.
