I saw that in cPanel you have the possibility to manage multi versions of PHP.
I come here to suggest two possible inclusions, so if you're not already working on it, VestaCP is too fast to evolve.
So two interesting things for the whole community would be the ability to manage the php version per domain (template).
The other suggestion would be on a page to install modules and versions of PHP.
It would be an Evolution.
If I'm wrong just ignore.
That would be a good idea to have... but I'm not sure it's possible to implement in VestaCP... at least, not with the way things as they stand.
Can be done with php-fpm, even if apache installed.
I will write HOWTO on forum in next few months, when I get free time.
@dpeca Writing in the forum a good way for me would already help.
From my own manual procedure, here's how to install PHP 5.6 on VestaCP on Debian 9.0
Launch commands one by one manually
apt-get install build-essential libssl-dev libxml2-dev pkg-config libssl-dev libbz2-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libgdbm-dev libjpeg62 libxml2 libxml2-dev libmcrypt4 libmcrypt-dev libmhash2 libmhash-dev libmm-dev libmm14 libtidy-dev libxslt1-dev libxslt1.1 libfreetype6 libfreetype6-dev libicu-dev libreadline-dev bzip2 libpcre3-dev libjpeg-dev libonig-dev libpspell-dev
apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev

mkdir /php/

#first check if newer PHP 5.6 released

cd /php/src/
tar -xjf php-5.6.34.tar.bz2

Hello! I followed the installation as above, in Debian 9 to have multiple PHP.
Kindly can you tell me how to have also ioncube_loader_lin_5.6.so for php5.6 together in multiple php with php7 ? (in php7 there is already and is working but ...) In php5.6 I do not know how to load it because I miss the php.ini configuration file separate for php5.6

its good idea, thank you. We'll do it
@anton-reutov we can get multi php (compiled) from:
(Ubuntu/debian)
add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
I don't know if there is another repo for the other distros that vesta supports but that could be a help to the vestaCP.
Also, it isn't a bad idea to organize the domains as domain |_Subdomain as i showed in #1679 (images below)
Panel:
Domain:
test 1
Options:
test 1 - 2
Subdomain Listing

test subdomain listing
