Common PHP Settings

You can customize PHP settings per domain:

Max Execution Time

Default: 300 seconds - Increase for long-running scripts or imports.

Upload Max Filesize

Default: 64M - Increase for uploading large files through your application.

Configuring PHP Settings

1. Go to your domain in EGPNL
2. Select PHP Settings
3. Modify the values as needed
4. Click Save Changes

Using php.ini

For advanced settings, create a php.ini file in your public_html folder:

memory_limit = 512M
max_execution_time = 600
upload_max_filesize = 128M
post_max_size = 128M
max_input_vars = 5000

Checking Your PHP Version

To verify which PHP version is running:

1. Create a file called phpinfo.php in your public_html
2. Add this code: <?php phpinfo(); ?>
3. Visit yourdomain.com/phpinfo.php in your browser
4. Delete the file after checking (security best practice)
