Supported PHP versions

Templ offers a range of PHP versions, so you can run the one your site's themes and plugins need. New websites default to PHP 8.2.

Available PHP versions

  • PHP 7.4
  • PHP 8.0
  • PHP 8.1
  • PHP 8.2 (default for new websites)
  • PHP 8.3
  • PHP 8.4

Which version to choose

Our recommendation is to always run the most modern stable version of PHP that your site's themes and plugins support. It is almost always faster, more secure and better maintained, and it gives your site the longest possible life, as opposed to choosing a version that is soon to be discontinued.

PHP security updates

For a recently reported PHP vulnerability, check the Templ status page for Templ's response, patch deployment progress, and any action you need to take. The versions listed on this page do not confirm whether a specific security patch has been deployed. See Service incidents and security updates.

Change PHP version

You change a site's PHP version in the Templ Panel under Website → Advanced. See PHP settings for the step-by-step guide.
