What is an ionCube Loader?

[Jake_J]

Can anyone tell me what ionCube loader is?

[Rodney]

Ioncube is one of the most well-known and useful PHP extensions. It enables the web application developer to encrypt and sell the PHP application's license.

[Jake_J]

Ok. How to enable it in cPanel?

[Aiden]

Yes. Ioncube loader is a free PHP addon that automatically decodes encrypted PHP scripts.
The procedure of enabling Ioncube in cPanel is as follows:
1. Log in to cPanel.
2. Select Server Configuration -> Tweak Settings -> PHP from the drop-down menu.
3. For the cPanel PHP loader, check the Ioncube check box.
4. Click on the “Save” button.
5. This will allow Ioncube in third-party PHP binaries for you.

That is quite easy. The ionCube loader is already installed in most professional hosting firms.

What is the main reason for using it?

[Elliott]

The truth is that enterprises and individual developers alike frequently wish to prevent their work from being copied or stolen, which is why they employ software like IonCube.

[Connor]

Ok. So now, I understand exactly why Ioncube is used.

[Jake_J]

How should I get it to operate on my server?

[Jesse_S]

It is usually installed and only requires activation by the hosting company or server administrator.

If you need to install the current version of ionCube, you can get it on their website, along with an installation manual. They also provide excellent tech support.
