  • I’m afraid this doesn’t sound WordPress related but host related.

    I would suggest raising a support ticket with your host and see what they advise.

    Ok I fixed the Php Version in WP

    first step update PhP in Cpanel on the server.

    from the Cpanel / file Manager / Folder “Public_Html” /Site name
    edit the HTaccess file
    change php56___ To phpXX___ Or php80___
    Before
    # END WordPress
    AddHandler application/x-httpd-alt-php56___lsphp .php
    AFTER
    # END WordPress
    AddHandler application/x-httpd-alt-php80___lsphp .php

    May have to disable Pluggins that maynot be compatible.

    I am having a similar problem, but when I try replacing:
    AddHandler application/x-httpd-alt-php56___lsphp .php

    with
    AddHandler application/x-httpd-alt-php80___lsphp .php

    I get a critical error message. Any thoughts?
