Hello. I have been a Kinsta customer for years and today is the first time I tried DevKinsta (coming from Devilbox). I run all of my LIVE sites on PHP 8.1 but it seems that DevKinsta does not support PHP 8.1. the most recent major version supported is PHP 8.0. How can I enable PHP 8.1 on DevKinsta? Thank you. ---

Hello @Haris_KaklamanosšŸ‘‹ Welcome to our community forum! šŸ˜„ DevKinsta does support PHP version from 7.2 to 8.3 , and that can be switched within the local Site configurations section, as I show below (a screenshot I took from my DevKinsta on my laptop) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/kinsta/original/2X/b/b17def823565a9c390c4c8d378bc3174f3b36e7f.png) You can also check our public [documentation here](https://kinsta.com/docs/devkinsta/devkinsta-site-management/php-versions/) . Hope that helps! Best regards, Agus Utomo ---

Hello and thanks for the reply. I forgot to mention that I am on Ubuntu 24.04.1. Does that make a difference? Here is what I see in DevKinsta. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/kinsta/original/2X/2/2518d44cb2274417bf626098584b22c089d35c3b.png) Thank you in advance. ---

Thank you for your reply. Iā€™m also on `Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS` šŸ¤” may I know whatā€™s the DevKinsta version youā€™re running there? Mine has not been updated yet to the latest version available (currently Iā€™m still using the previous DevKinsta 2.13.2 version). Best regards, Agus Utomo ---

Hi @Haris_Kaklamanos! Thank you for your reply! I am currently running the latest version of DevKinsta on Mac and I can confirm that I can use up to PHP version 8.3. To clarify, does this issue only occur when pulling a site from MyKinsta to DevKinsta? Or, does the issue also occur if you create a new site installation locally within DevKinsta? We look forward to hearing back from you! Best regards ---

Hello Andrew. The same issues occurs when I am creating a new custom site. I can only choose PHP up to 8.0. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/kinsta/original/2X/4/40e1b8d679099cfc84a9ef5d1000389690c61352.png) Thank you. ---

Hello again @Haris_Kaklamanos Iā€™ve just upgraded (installed) the latest DevKinsta version ( **2.13.4** ) on my **Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS** : ![Screenshot from 2024-09-23 07-30-27](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/kinsta/original/2X/7/73e3192d0d2804095bbf4c66bd43c93efaaa8b34.png) and I then tried to create a new WordPress site: ![Screenshot from 2024-09-23 07-26-30](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/kinsta/original/2X/5/5168bc5b0dcbf59ae9bf69291bf9b1a3976688a0.png) ![Screenshot from 2024-09-23 07-29-36](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/kinsta/original/2X/0/0e4ca45aa10c8f75c54023839c52b224bee9ea8f.png) and could still see the option to select PHP version from **7.2** to **8.3** : ![Screenshot from 2024-09-23 07-29-53](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/kinsta/original/2X/d/dd50aa04077322f111dc1dc3b776e00e233c0b7c.png) (was able to switch from PHP 8.0 to PHP 8.1) ![Screenshot from 2024-09-23 07-30-11](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/kinsta/original/2X/2/2b22f939b007517ebecb044a52b8c79b32cf04a9.png) I also tried to click to add ā€œCustom Siteā€ menu, and on the PHP Version drop down menu, I could still see the PHP version 7.2 to 8.3 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/kinsta/original/2X/6/6ccbfe7828a41150342e6a1f6d25b64c2a1fd1b0.png) So yeah, I can confirm that with latest DevKinsta version ( **2.13.4** ) on Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS, itā€™s still showing the same PHP version option (7.2 to 8.3). What if you try to remove/uninstall DevKinsta completely and re-install it? Best regards, Agus Utomo
