A lot of script-driven apps, particularly paid cms, encrypt their files to make sure that they will not be reverse engineered or tampered with. The majority of them use an application named ionCube PHP Encoder to do that, so if you acquire a paid script and you intend to set it up in a website hosting account, a tool called ionCube Loader has to be present on your server. Without this, you won't be able to install the script or if you somehow find a way to do that, it will not work efficiently as almost all of the script code will be encrypted to a degree where it cannot be interpreted. That is why, you have to make sure that ionCube Loader is present when you get a new hosting account and you wish to employ some paid web app. If you buy a shared hosting account and the instrument is not present, it cannot be added because the entire server PHP environment will have to be compiled again.

IonCube in Hosting

IonCube Loader is supplied with each and every Linux hosting plan that we provide and you're able to activate it anytime with just a few clicks, so you will be able to take advantage of script apps that require it. You're able to do that from the PHP Configuration area of your Hepsia Control Panel and all it'll take to activate or deactivate ionCube is to click a single button. The change will take effect in a minute, so you are able to proceed and install the app that you would like without delay. The exact same section will allow you to change the PHP release that is active for your account, as we support numerous versions on our state-of-the-art cloud hosting platform. In case you move to a release that you've never used so far, you will need to enable ionCube Loader again. More advanced users will be able to use a php.ini file in a specific domain folder so as to set a PHP release different from the one for the whole account or enable/disable ionCube Loader.

IonCube in Semi-dedicated Servers

Each semi-dedicated server account that is set up on our modern cloud web hosting platform comes with ionCube Loader support, which means that you will be able to set up any kind of script application which requires the tool. Then employ it in order to launch and maintain your online presence. You can enable ionCube from the PHP Configuration section of your Control Panel and it will take you no more than a couple of clicks to do that. The change will take effect right away, so you can go ahead and install the needed script inside your account. If you decide to switch the PHP version that is active for the account, you'll have to enable ionCube for the new release too. Our custom platform also allows you to have a different PHP version for each domain or subdomain, that is done with a php.ini file in every domain folder. In the same way, you're able to enable/disable ionCube Loader for each website hosted in your semi-dedicated account.
