Lots 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. The majority of them use an application called ionCube PHP Encoder to do that, so when you purchase a paid script and you intend to install it in a hosting account, a software tool called ionCube Loader must be present on the server. Without having it, you can't install the script or if you somehow manage to do that, it won't operate effectively as almost all of the script code will be encoded to a point where it cannot be interpreted. That is why, you should make sure that ionCube Loader is present if you get a fresh hosting account and you want to work with some paid web app. If you buy a shared website hosting account and the instrument is not present, it cannot be added as the whole server PHP environment shall have to be compiled again.
IonCube in Hosting
IonCube Loader is supplied with each hosting that we provide and you will be able to activate it anytime with only a couple of clicks, so you'll be able to work with script apps which require it. You can do that through the PHP Configuration area of your Hepsia Control Panel and all it takes to activate or disable ionCube is to click a button. The change will take effect within a minute, which means that you're able to proceed and set up the app that you need right away. The same section will allow you to change the PHP version that's active for your account, as we support multiple releases on our leading-edge cloud platform. If you switch to a version that you have not used to date, you will need to enable ionCube Loader once again. More advanced users can use a php.ini file in a particular domain folder to set a PHP release different from the one for the entire account or enable/disable ionCube Loader.
