How do You Update a Webassist Website’s PHP Code?

Hi,

I recently migrated my Website from HostGator to GoDaddy and the guys at Go Daddy are telling me I might need to update or upgrade my Website’s PHP code soon, or some of the features in my Website might malfunction.

Anybody knows whether such update/upgrade is even possible? And, if it is possible, how do we do it?

Thank you for your attention.

There are several threads about updating php versions.

Two ways to find out what php version you are using:
1) Use cPanel and look for MultiPHP Manager. That will tell you the current version. To change, select the latest one (after you have prepped your WA code!)
2) OR create a new php file with this code:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

- name it info.php or similar & upload
- go to that page in browser and it will show what version your server is using on that domain


Any WA files using mysql AND not using mysqli have to be converted. Download mysqli extension. http://www.webassist.com/product/mysqli

Note: Sometimes even after conversion, you may still have an older connection to mysql. This line should be deleted or you'll get a blank page.
