HOW DO I CHANGE PHP VERSION?

As standard, we run PHP 7+. If you wish to switch version, head to panel.wpworld.io > Manage Hosting > [Select Package] > “Switch PHP Version”

Our Linux platform has the ability to run different versions of PHP:

PHP 5.3
PHP 5.4
PHP 5.5
PHP 5.6
PHP 7.0
PHP 7.1
PHP 7.2
PHP 7.3
PHP 7.4

Version changes may take up to 60 seconds, but are usually instant.

On our Managed WordPress Platform we run PHP 7.0 (and above) and this cannot be changed.
