Help! PHP/PERL info needed

Post by CelticCurRobin »

I feel like an idiot! I can't find the info I need!
I have version 14 and have basically done nothing with my web site since my last version - I believe it was 12 - because I am super confused with the newer version.
But my biggest problem is that Yahoo small business is going to be doing some sort of change at the end of this month and any web site using PHP/PERL will likely stop working and I have NO idea if web builder 12/14 or 15 (if I could afford to upgrade again) use those.
Can some one please tell me if I need to worry/change my web site and if I need to upgrade to 15 to comply with Yahoo?
Thanks and please forgive my ignorance! My it brother passed away 3 years ago and I am doing this completely alone.

Standard websites do not use PHP, but if you are using forms then PHP is required.
It is very unlikely that a webhost stops supporting PHP because then many websites will stop working. It is more likely that they stop supporting older versions of PHP.

WB15 supports the current version (PHP7), which is available for most webhosts.

Thanks Pablo!
So could the forms be from a second party? Like Google forms?

You can use any third party form service you like.

I use Cognito forms for any form work I need (www.cognitoforms.com). The free service is probably all you will need.
