In order to avoid the reverse engineering of script applications, many developers encode their code with tools like 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 modify the unprotected code without having to pay the necessary license fees. In case you acquire web software encrypted with ionCube PHP Encoder, you'll be able to use it without any problems as long as a software tool known as ionCube Loader is present on the web hosting server. This loader enables you to execute encoded files and you will often find it among the prerequisites for a certain script app to be installed. As the encoded files are already precompiled, they are normally executed much faster and this can improve the general speed of your website.

IonCube in Hosting

When you obtain a hosting service through us, it will be set up on our tailor-made cloud platform where ionCube Loader is already present, so you won't have any problems to manage any script application that requires the tool so as to run appropriately. We also offer you several different versions of PHP, so if you switch the version, you need to activate ionCube once again. Our system remembers the changes you make, which means that in case you go back to the previous version of PHP which was active for your account, ionCube Loader will already be turned on. Both the PHP version and the ionCube tool can be managed through the PHP Configuration section of our Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. Every change that you make takes literally just a mouse-click and it will take effect immediately.

IonCube in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Since all of the semi-dedicated server accounts are set up on our advanced cluster platform and ionCube Loader is available on it, you will be able to use any script app that needs the tool so as to run efficiently. With a couple of clicks in your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel you can activate or deactivate ionCube for the PHP version that's currently active for your account. Since we support a couple of releases of PHP simultaneously, you'll have to do this each time you switch to a different version, but when you revert back to a release that you have already used, our system will remember your choice and ionCube Loader will already be active. In case you have several websites inside the same account and they require different releases of PHP, you'll be able to set up a php.ini file in each domain folder and with several lines of code you can define both the PHP version and the status of ionCube irrespective of what is selected for the web hosting account as a whole.
