Today we're pleased to announce that Laravel Forge now supports managing multiple versions of PHP on a single server! Once installed, you may assign a specific PHP version to any site on your server. You may even run different sites on different PHP versions - all within the same server! In addition, you may choose your preferred PHP version when creating new queue workers.
Other versions may be accessed using their version numbers: You can also use the new FORGE_PHP and FORGE_PHP_FPM environment variables within your deployment scripts to automatically use the selected default binary and FPM process names: We have updated the Forge API to reflect the new PHP changes.
