IonCube
What is IonCube? Precisely how does IonCube work and when do you need it for your PHP applications?
IonCube Loader is a tool, that's necessary to run files which are encoded with ionCube PHP Encoder. The aforementioned is an app employed to make PHP code human unreadable, to protect it from reverse engineering and illegal use. A number of script-driven apps, particularly forums, cms and electronic commerce solutions are protected with ionCube PHP Encoder, so if you purchase a script and you notice that ionCube is on the list of website hosting environment requirements, you should make sure that your hosting server has the instrument pre-installed. While it is not that hard to set it up if you have your own server, it is close to impossible to do that on a shared web hosting server due to the fact that the PHP environment should be precompiled and all clients on the server will be affected.

IonCube in Cloud Hosting
When you get a
cloud hosting package from us, it'll be created on our in-house built cloud platform where ionCube Loader is already present, so you won't have any problems to manage any script app which requires the tool to run properly. Furthermore, we offer a few different releases of PHP, so if you change the version, you need to activate ionCube again. Our system remembers the adjustments you make, and in case you switch back to the previous release of PHP which was active for your account, ionCube Loader will already be activated. The PHP version as well as the ionCube tool can be operated through the PHP Configuration area of our Hepsia hosting Control Panel. Each change that you make takes literally just a click and it takes effect right away.

IonCube in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Because 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 application that requires the software tool to run properly. With a couple of clicks in the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel you are able to activate or deactivate ionCube for the PHP version which is currently active for your account. As we support multiple versions of PHP at the same time, you'll have to do this any time you move to a different version, but if you revert back to a version which you've already used, our system will remember your choice and ionCube Loader will already be activated. In case you have several sites in 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 a couple of lines of code you'll be able to define both the PHP version and the status of ionCube regardless of what is selected for the web hosting account as a whole.
