In order to prevent the reverse engineering of script applications, numerous developers encrypt their code with tools such as ionCube PHP Encoder in order to make it human unreadable. The aforementioned is valid for paid applications in particular, because anybody could possibly use and modify the unencrypted code without paying the necessary license fees. If you obtain web software encoded with ionCube PHP Encoder, you can use it without a problem as long as a software tool known as ionCube Loader is available on the web hosting server. This loader enables you to run encoded files and you will often notice it among the prerequisites for a certain script app to be set up. Due to the fact that the encoded files are already precompiled, they're usually executed faster and this will enhance the overall speed of your site.

IonCube in Website Hosting

If you purchase a website hosting plan through us, it will be set up on our custom-made cloud platform where ionCube Loader is already installed, so you won't have any problems to run any script app which needs the instrument to run properly. In addition, we offer you several different versions of PHP, so if you change the version, you will have to activate ionCube once again. Our system remembers the changes you make, so when you move back to the previous release of PHP which was active for your account, ionCube Loader will already be turned on. The PHP version as well as the ionCube instrument can be operated through the PHP Configuration part of our Hepsia hosting Control Panel. Every change that you make takes literally just a click and it takes effect at once.

IonCube in Semi-dedicated Servers

As all semi-dedicated server accounts are set up on our advanced cluster platform and ionCube Loader is available on it, you shall be able to use any script application that requires this software tool so as to run efficiently. With just a few clicks in the Hepsia hosting Control Panel you can activate or deactivate ionCube for the PHP version that is currently active for the account. As we support a couple of releases of PHP at the same time, you will need to do this each time you switch to a new release, and when you revert back to a version which you have already used, our system will remember your preference and ionCube Loader will already be active. In case you have several websites inside the same account and they need different versions of PHP, you'll be able to set up a php.ini file in each and every domain folder and with several lines of code you can define both the PHP release and the status of ionCube no matter what is selected for the website hosting account as a whole.
