Access the folder to which you would like to apply a different PHP version. If you want to edit a domain, access its public_html folder. For a subdomain, the corresponding folder will be inside the domain's public_html folder:
For a specific folder, go to the desired folder's path. Once in the correct location, open the .htaccess file by double-clicking on it.
If the file doesn't exist, you can create it directly in the File Manager. Make sure to include a dot (.) at the beginning of the filename!
Add the following code to your .htaccess file (at the very beginning of it):
<FilesMatch "\.(php4|php5|php3|php2|php|phtml)$">
SetHandler application/x-lsphp71
</FilesMatch>
The second line will define the PHP version for the folder. All you need to do is change application/x-lsphp71 code for the version that you would like to use. Check this table for the possible values:
| PHP version | Code |
| 5.2 | application/x-lsphp52 |
| 5.3 | application/x-lsphp53 |
| 5.4 | application/x-lsphp54 |
| 5.5 | application/x-lsphp55 |
| 5.6 | application/x-lsphp56 |
| 7.0 | application/x-lsphp70 |
| 7.1 | application/x-lsphp71 |
| 7.2 | application/x-lsphp72 |
| 7.3* | application/x-lsphp73 |
| 7.4 | application/x-lsphp74 |
| 8.0 | application/x-lsphp80 |
| 8.1
8.2 | application/x-lsphp81
