You are now inside of the PHP Settings page.

You may edit the following options:

• PHP-Version
• allow_furl_fopen
• allow_url_include
• display_errors
• opcache.enable

Furthermore the following two parameters are being shown:

• max_memory_limit
• max_execution_time

A newer version of PHP brings new features, performance optimisations and important security updates. Here you select the PHP version to be used for your domain. If you are using a CMS such as WordPress, check up to which version your WordPress version, themes and installed plug-ins are supported.

Note: We recommend that you always use the latest PHP version.

Allows your web application to access remote files and scripts that are not located on the same web server where your own web data and files are located.

Note: If not necessary for technical reasons, we recommend that you deactivate this option.

Allows the following PHP functions to be executed for the fopen wrapper:

• include, 
• include_once, 
• require, 
• require_once.

Note: This setting requires the previous parameter allow_furl_fopen to be activated.

With this setting, error messages and log messages from the web server are displayed directly on the website.

Note: For security reasons, this value should always be deactivated when the website is visible on the Internet.

OPCache offers PHP the option of saving so-called bytecode into cache memory when executing and compiling PHP scripts. This then makes the website load faster and generally improves performance.

Note: We recommend that you leave this option activated.

This value indicates the maximum amount of memory that a PHP script may use when running.

Note: A larger hosting package offers you a higher maximum memory space.

This value tells you how long in seconds a PHP script can be executed before it is cancelled.

Note: A larger hosting package offers you a longer execution time for PHP scripts.
