To stop the reverse engineering of script applications, numerous developers encode their program code with instruments such as ionCube PHP Encoder to make it human unreadable. The aforementioned is valid for paid applications in particular, since anybody would be able to use and change the unencrypted code without having to pay the required license fees. If you purchase web software protected with ionCube PHP Encoder, you'll be able to use it without a problem as long as a tool named ionCube Loader is present on the hosting server. This loader allows you to execute encrypted files and you will often see it on the list of prerequisites for a certain script app to be set up. As the encoded files are already precompiled, they're usually executed a lot quicker and this can raise the general speed of your site.

IonCube in Cloud Web Hosting

When you aquire a cloud web hosting plan through us, it will be created on our custom cloud hosting platform where ionCube Loader is already set up, so you won't have any kind of problems to manage any script app that requires the instrument in order to run properly. We also offer a few different versions of PHP, which means that in case you switch the version, you will need to enable ionCube again. Our system remembers the adjustments you make, and in case you move back to the previous version of PHP that was active for your account, ionCube Loader will already be activated. Both the PHP version as well as the ionCube instrument can be managed from the PHP Configuration part of our Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. Every change that you do takes literally just a mouse-click and it takes effect immediately.

IonCube in Semi-dedicated Servers

Due to the fact that 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 efficiently. With a couple of clicks in your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel you are able to activate or deactivate ionCube for the PHP version that's currently active for your account. Since we support multiple versions of PHP simultaneously, you will have to do that any time you move to a new release, but if you revert back to a release which you have already used, our system will remember your preference and ionCube Loader will already be active. When you have multiple sites in the same account and they need different versions 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 can define both the PHP release plus the status of ionCube regardless of what is selected for the web hosting account altogether.
