🧬 PHP Settings

WC Studio gives you direct access to essential PHP configuration values for your store — no server access required. These settings help you adjust performance, file upload limits, and script behavior.

📍 Go to: WC Studio → Stores → Select a Store → Settings → PHP

🧠 Current PHP Version

Field	Description
PHP Version	Current PHP runtime for your store (e.g. `8.4`)

⚠️ Note: PHP version is by default managed by WC Studio for stability and compatibility. You may choose custom PHP version, or you may contact support.

💡 Tips for Store Owners

✅ Increase upload size limits if you’re uploading large images, videos, or product files.
✅ Use a higher memory limit if you’re running multiple heavy plugins or page builders.
✅ Set max_execution_time higher if you’re importing large product catalogs.
✅ Leave allow_url_fopen enabled if you’re using external API integrations.
