Plenty of script-driven apps, especially paid cms, encrypt their files in order to make sure that they won't be reverse engineered or tampered with. Most of them use an application named ionCube PHP Encoder to do this, so, in case you buy a paid script and you wish to install it in a hosting account, a tool known as ionCube Loader must be present on your server. Without it, you can't install the script or if you somehow find a way to do this, it won't function effectively due to the fact that almost all of the script code will be encrypted to a point where it cannot be interpreted. That is why, you need to make sure that ionCube Loader is installed if you get a fresh website hosting account and you wish to employ some paid web application. If you purchase a shared web hosting account and the instrument is not present, it can't be added because the entire server PHP environment will have to be compiled again.

IonCube in Cloud Website Hosting

When you aquire a cloud website hosting through us, it will be set up on our tailor-made cloud platform where ionCube Loader is already set up, so you will not have any problems to manage any script app which needs the instrument in order to function appropriately. We also supply a few different versions of PHP, which means that in case you change the version, you will have to enable ionCube again. Our platform remembers the adjustments you make, so if you move back to the previous version of PHP which was active for your account, ionCube Loader will already be turned on. The PHP version and the ionCube instrument can be managed from the PHP Configuration part of our Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. Each adjustment that you do takes literally just a click and it will take effect immediately.
