PHP Upgrade: Transition to PHP 8.2 and 8.3

As part of our commitment to improving the hosting experience, we are upgrading PHP versions across all Windows hosting packages. Starting January 6, 2025, older PHP versions will begin to be deprecated. New customers will only have access to PHP 8.2 or higher, while existing websites will remain on their current versions unless updated.

To ensure a seamless transition, soft upgrades will begin on February 3, 2025, followed by a mandatory upgrade to PHP 8.2 and higher by March 3, 2025.

Why Upgrade to PHP 8.3?

Performance Improvements: Faster and more efficient applications, leading to improved user experience.
Enhanced Security: Stay protected with the latest security patches to prevent vulnerabilities.
Bug Fixes: Resolve issues from older PHP versions for smoother functionality.
