# How PHP version from MultiPHP Manager

Just a few years ago, managing different cPanel PHP versions was an all-or-nothing ordeal. Older tools would change the PHP version for every site on a cPanel at once. Configuring different individual sites required awkward workarounds using `.htaccess` files. The latest versions of cPanel introduced a new tool, **MultiPHP Manager**, which simplifies the process. Click on the MultiPHP Manager icon in the **Software** section of cPanel to get started!

> Please Note: be sure to click on **MultiPHP Manager** and not **MultiPHP INI Editor**. The INI Editor is a different piece of software that helps you fine tune your PHP settings on individual sites.

Once on the MultiPHP Manager page, you will see a listing for every site on the cPanel, including subdomains. Changing the PHP used on a site or sites is simple:

1. Check the box for the site or sites you wish to update
2. Select the desired **PHP Version** from the drop-down menu
3. Click ‘Apply’

That’s all it takes to change the PHP version used on any site you choose.
