Making a cPanel account use specific PHP version

[damotwo]

Not even sure if this is the right place to ask this, but it feels like a workaround. Short story long is after a few years of having a company manage my server I've taken it on myself as company just vanished.

I use a fairly common couple of scripts. I'm running PHP 5.3 but there is one script that needs to use 5.5 - there was something the company used to do on an account level to make the account think it was running 5.5 .. and I don't know what.

Any ideas? Thanks

Not sure which plugin they using for your account but now you can install MultiPHP on your server with the EasyApache 4, Please try to check following docs for EasyApache 4 setup.

Hello

The ability to offer multiple versions of PHP is offered with EasyApache 4:

However, keep in mind that PHP 5.3 is end of life and unsupported in EasyApache 4. It's a good idea to consider updating scripts that require PHP 5.3 to ensure they are compatible with newer versions of PHP. Note that another option is to use the PHP Selector option with Cloud Linux:
