Many applications need additional PHP extensions, such as ionCube Loader for encoded software, GD or imagick for image processing, or mailparse for e-mail processing. You can enable them yourself in cPanel.
- Log in at https://cpanel.hoston.ch.
- In the Software section, click Select PHP Version.
- Make sure a specific PHP version is selected (not native).
- Switch to the Extensions tab.
- Tick the extension you need, e.g. ioncube_loader, gd or mailparse. The change is saved immediately.
- To disable an extension, untick it.
Tip: Reset to default restores the default selection. Note that extensions are selected per PHP version: if you change the version later, check the extensions again. If you need an extension that is not listed, open a ticket in the Client Area.
