Restricted PHP Settings

By default, new accounts use PHP 5.6.  However, you can optionally choose from other versions including 5.4 and 7.0.

Our shared hosted accounts operate in carefully managed environments and have certain limits on what can be changed in order to maintain the stability of the server.

PHP has been configured to use the following settings:

safe mode = Off (cannot adjust – removed in PHP 5.4.0)
memory_limit = 256M (MAXIMUM)
max_execution_time = 30 (MAXIMUM in seconds)
max_input_time = 60 (MAXIMUM in seconds)
post_max_size = 64M (MAXIMUM)
upload_max_filesize = 64M (MAXIMUM)
enable_dl = Off (cannot adjust)

The above settings either CANNOT be changed or exceeded.  These limits are set to prevent extremely high resource usage in shared environments.  We have found that a majority of the PHP scripts will work within these limits, and the scripts that require more resources are best suited for a VPS or dedicated server.
