How to check your version
Which PHP is this site on?
On the server
$ php -v
PHP 8.3.14 (cli)
# the web server can run a different binary; check phpinfo()
In the lock file
$ composer show --platform | grep php
php 8.3.14
# composer.json require.php is what you allow, not what runs
On Forge
Server → PHP
Default version: 8.3
# sites can override the server default
Know before support ends.
Porro reads the PHP, framework and database version from every site and tells you 90 days before support runs out.
