In order to stop the reverse engineering of script apps, a lot of developers encode their program code with instruments like ionCube PHP Encoder to make it human unreadable. The latter is valid for paid apps in particular, since anyone could possibly use and change the unencrypted code without having to pay the needed license fees. When you buy web software encoded with ionCube PHP Encoder, you'll be able to use it without a problem as long as a software instrument known as ionCube Loader is present on the website hosting server. This loader makes it possible to execute encoded files and you'll often see it on the list of prerequisites for a certain script app to be installed. Due to the fact that the encoded files are already precompiled, they are normally executed much faster and this can improve the overall speed of your website.

IonCube Loader is supplied with each and every Linux cloud web hosting package that we provide and you can activate it anytime with just a couple of clicks, so you will be able to work with script applications that require it.

In case you switch to a version that you have not used so far, you will need to activate ionCube Loader again. Experienced users can use a php.ini file in a particular domain folder in order to set a PHP release different from the one for the entire account or enable/disable ionCube Loader.

As we use a hi-tech custom-made platform and we support many different versions of PHP simultaneously, you'll need to activate ionCube any time you move to a version that you haven't used before. Additionally, you have the option to activate ionCube loader and even to set a PHP release different from the one in the account as a whole by generating a php.ini file in an individual domain or subdomain folder and adding several lines of program code in it.
