# How to change the PHP version in cPanel?

Below we will show you how to change the PHP version that your hosting plan's website will use.

To change the PHP version, you must access the **MultiPHP Manager** tool, in the **Software** section of the control panel.

In the **MultiPHP Manager** screen, you will see:

1. The PHP version that the server is currently using. If you do not choose a specific PHP version for your website, it will use this PHP version.
2. Next, you will see the list of domains and subdomains associated with your account along with the PHP version they are currently using. To change the PHP version of your website, you must check the box on the left.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you have created subdomains in your hosting account, you can assign them their own PHP version separate from the one used by the main domain.
{% endhint %}

3. In the **PHP Version** selector, you can choose the new PHP version you want to use for the checked account.
4. Clicking the **Apply** button will save the change. This process may take a few minutes.
