Gibbon Hosting: Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know

The official documentation lists PHP 8.0 or above, MySQL 8.0 or above (MariaDB is mentioned as an alternative), the gettext, mbstring, curl, zip, xml, gd and intl PHP extensions, and Apache or Nginx with mod_rewrite enabled.
Yes, provided the account offers a current PHP version, the listed extensions and MySQL 8.0 or newer. Gibbon's documentation says it can be installed on self-hosted, shared or cloud servers, so a cPanel account with PHP version selection fits its stated needs.
Log in to cPanel, open the Softaculous one-click installer, choose Gibbon, pick a domain and admin login, and press install. It normally takes a few clicks and needs no manual file upload or database setup.
Gibbon is built to be extended through separate modules and themes, and the community contributes translations. Because the source is open under GPL-3.0, schools with a developer can adapt it, while others can use the modules that ship with it.
Yes. Gibbon is open-source software released under the GPL-3.0 licence, so there are no software fees — you only pay for your Hostripples hosting plan.
Yes. Every Hostripples cPanel NVMe plan includes the full Softaculous library, so on one account you can run Gibbon alongside other apps in its category (Educational), such as Moodle and Chamilo, plus hundreds of other applications, subject to your plan's resources. You can add each app on its own domain or subdomain and upgrade to a larger plan at any time.
A moderate application like Gibbon runs comfortably on the Smart or Business plan; you can upgrade whenever your traffic or content grows.
Yes. We migrate your site for free with all hosting plans.
