Why a PHP upgrade is not a one-click job

A PHPPHP is a programming language that builds your web pages on the computer that hosts your site, just before they reach the visitor. WordPress runs on it. upgrade, also called a PHP update, keeps your site on software that php.net still supports with security fixes, so it is less at risk. HostingWeb hosting is the service that keeps your website's files on a computer that is always online, so visitors can open your site at any time. panels let you switch the version in seconds, but not whether your themeA WordPress theme is a ready-made package that decides how your WordPress site looks and how its pages are laid out. Change the theme and the design changes., plugins and code still work. Website Without PHP checks that first on a copy of your site, fixes what breaks and only then switches the live site.

From £415.

How the upgrade runs

Three steps, in this order, so a working site stays a working site.

  • Compatibility checkWe read your PHP versionA PHP version is a numbered edition of PHP, like 8.3. Each edition is looked after for a limited time, then gets security fixes only, then nothing., plugins, theme and custom code and list what will not work on the target version.
  • Fix and test on a copyWe repair what breaks on a copy of your site, so visitors never see the testing.
  • Go live with a way backWe switch the live site, check the key pages and keep the old setup ready to restore.
