.htaccess file edit for subdomains

[gusgikas]

Hi Everyone,

I'm really hoping someone can HELP me out.

I currently have multiple hosting accounts running cPanel and PHP Version 7.2

These sites are currently running WordPress 5.1.1.

I'm having an issue installing from applications from Installatron, which require a PHP 5.6. I have created subdomains, but to no avail will these applications install.

I was told I can create a custom .htaccess file in the subdirectory of the subdomain, to force it to only use PHP 5.6; but I'm not sure if that would work.

Your guidance and assistance is greatly appreciated.

Looking forward to your response.

Thank you...

Add to your .htaccess

<IfModule mime_module>
AddType application/x-httpd-ea-php56 .php .php5 .phtml
</IfModule>

You could also just go to cPanel>>Software>>MultiPHP manager and set the subdomain to whatever PHP version you'd like it to run as well. This automatically restarts/rebuilds any necessary configurations and is the most correct way to achieve this.
