Overview
This interface allows you to configure your PHP settings.
MultiPHP INI Editor
Select the location that you wish to configure from the menu. You can edit either the account's home directory or the domain's document root. The PHP directives will appear.
Select a tab to view more information about that section of the MultiPHP INI Editor interface.
The Basic Mode section of this interface loads directive values from the php.ini file for your selected domain or home directory. Make your changes to the desired directives and click Apply. The system saves changes to the php.ini file, the user.ini file, and your .htaccess file.
Important:
If you use the DSO PHP handler and you change your PHP version to a different major PHP version, the system will not read your configuration changes. For example, if you change your PHP version from PHP 5 to PHP 7.
To correct this issue, you must edit and save your PHP configuration again in the interface. The system will then load the .htaccess directives correctly.

Select the location that you wish to configure from the menu. You can edit either the user account's home directory or the domain's document root. The PHP directives will appear.
The Editor Mode section of this interface loads the contents of the php.ini file for your selected domain, if it exists. If the php.ini file does not exist, the interface loads a blank editor so that you can create your own file. Make your changes to the desired directives and click Save.
The system saves changes to both the php.ini file in the Path section of the interface and the .user.ini file. The system also saves these changes to your .htaccess file. For example, the location of your file may be the /home/allthethings/public_html/php.ini file. The interface attempts a rudimentary validation of directive names. This does not guarantee that your PHP configuration will function. To reset your PHP settings to default values, delete the domain's or home directory's php.ini file.
