Customizing PHP Parameters

 
administrator guidephp managementweb hostinginterfacephp

In the Plesk interface, you and your customers can fine-tune the PHP
settings for individual service plans, add-on plans, subscriptions,
websites, and subdomains. One can change the values of some of the most
frequently used PHP parameters by selecting the desired value from a
list or specifying a custom value. By editing the
panel.ini file, you can make the following changes to

For most PHP parameters, one can select a single value from a list of
predefined values. You can create a custom list of predefined values a

    to. For more information about the groups of PHP parameters, read
    “PHP parameters and parameter groups” below.
  • <parameter_name> is the name of the chosen PHP parameter. Use the
    same syntax as in php.ini.

on the list.

For example, by default, the memory_limit parameter can take one of
the following values: 8M, 16M, 32M, 64M, and 128M.
