To stop the reverse engineering of script applications, a lot of developers encrypt their program code with instruments like ionCube PHP Encoder and make it human unreadable. This is valid for paid applications in particular, since anybody could possibly use and change the unprotected code without paying the needed license fees. When you get web software encoded with ionCube PHP Encoder, you will be able to use it without any problems as long as an instrument named ionCube Loader is available on the web hosting server. This loader allows you to run encrypted files and you will often find it as one of the prerequisites for a particular script app to be set up. Since the encrypted files are already precompiled, they are ordinarily executed more quickly and this will enhance the overall speed of your site.

IonCube in Hosting

IonCube Loader is present on all web servers that are a part of our cloud hosting platform, which means that regardless of the Linux hosting package that you select during the signup process, you can enable it through the Hepsia Control Panel. The process is as easy as right-clicking an On/Off button from the Advanced section, so even if this is your first hosting account ever, you will not have to do anything complex. The very same section will allow you to pick the PHP version for your account (4, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2), which means that in case you would like to move to another version, you only have to activate ionCube Loader for it as well. Because our platform is quite flexible, you may even set another PHP version and a different status of ionCube by using a php.ini file in each domain folder. In case this is something you wish to do but you do not have much experience, the 24/7 tech support team will be able to help you quickly.

IonCube in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Every single semi-dedicated server account that is created on our cutting-edge cloud web hosting platform has ionCube Loader support, and you'll be able to install any kind of script app which needs the software tool. Then employ it to start and maintain your internet presence. You can activate ionCube through the PHP Configuration section of your Control Panel and it'll take you no more than a few clicks to do that. Your change takes effect immediately, so you will be able to go ahead and set up the needed script in your account. If you decide to change the PHP version that's active for your account, you'll need to enable ionCube for the new release too. Our custom platform also allows you to have a different PHP release for each domain or subdomain, which is done with a php.ini file in every domain folder. In the same way, you can enable/disable ionCube Loader for each site hosted in your semi-dedicated account.
