In order to stop the reverse engineering of script apps, a number of developers encrypt their code with tools like ionCube PHP Encoder to make it human unreadable. The aforementioned is valid for paid apps in particular, because anybody would be able to use and change the unprotected code without having to pay the necessary license fees. When you purchase web software protected with ionCube PHP Encoder, you can use it without any problems as long as a software instrument known as ionCube Loader is present on the hosting server. This loader enables you to run encoded files and you will often find it on the list of prerequisites for a given script application to be installed. Due to the fact that the encrypted files are already precompiled, they are ordinarily executed much faster and this can enhance the overall speed of your site.
IonCube in Shared Hosting
When you buy a shared hosting through us, it will be created on our in-house made cloud hosting platform where ionCube Loader is already set up, so you won't have any kind of problems to run any script app which requires the instrument in order to function properly. We also provide a few different releases of PHP, which means that if you change the version, you'll have to enable ionCube again. Our platform remembers the adjustments you make, which means that in case you switch back to the previous release of PHP that was active for your account, ionCube Loader will already be turned on. Both the PHP version as well as the ionCube instrument can be managed through the PHP Configuration section of our Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. Each adjustment that you do takes literally just a mouse-click and it'll take effect at once.
IonCube in Semi-dedicated Servers
In case you buy a semi-dedicated server plan from our company, you will be able to use any script-driven app that requires ionCube Loader because the software tool is available on all the servers which are a part of our state-of-the-art cloud web hosting platform. In addition, we support multiple releases of PHP, and if you switch from PHP 4, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, for instance, you can enable ionCube for this particular version with just a click from your Hepsia Control Panel. Our platform will remember your choice, so if you move back to the earlier version of PHP, the instrument will already be active. For more tech-savvy users, we also provide the option to select the PHP version and whether ionCube will be active or not for a particular domain without altering the settings for the entire web hosting account. This can be done by placing a php.ini file within a domain folder with a couple of lines of code.
