Expression Engine's Requirements Update in 2.6
EE 2.4 was released last week. In case you didn't read all the way to the bottom of the release notes, we want to make sure you know that later this year ExpressionEngine's requirements will change.
Starting with ExpressionEngine 2.6, the new PHP & MySQL requirements will be:
PHP 5.2.4
MySQL 5.0.3
EE 2.6 is very tentatively scheduled for late Q2 this year, so you'll have at least 5-6 months to ensure your host meets the requirements when they change. Don't worry, the vast majority of web hosts already do.
This requirements change will allow the Expression Engine team to plan and implement new features in the most optimized way possible. We'll be sure to repeat this info on a regular basis.
You know who our favorite cheap host is - Hostgator! So get Hostgator for your web hosting needs, including the new ExpressionEngine 2.6 when it comes out.
