Introduction
This is a quick step-by-step guide to installing PHP FastCGI via the 34SP.com Control Panel.
PHP FastCGI allows PHP to run under your own user account and without safe mode restrictions. Please note that the long term use of older PHP versions is not advised. Older versions of PHP are inherently less secure and put increased drain on your site's resources.

Login to your account
Firstly, you'll need to login to your 34SP.com account at https://account.34sp.com.

Step 2
Choose 'Manage Sites'
Once you have logged in, click on the 'Manage Sites' icon.
This will bring up a list of websites or domain names you have in your 34SP.com account. Simply choose the website you wish to edit by clicking on it.

Step 3
Choose 'PHP Version'
Select 'PHP Version' from the site overview page.

Step 4
Install PHP Version
This will bring up a form. Choose the domain or sub domain you wish to change the PHP version for. When you're done, click 'Update PHP Version' to begin the installation.

Step 6
