You can change the default PHP version for all new sites created in your account by accessing your [**Sites > Settings**](https://my.pressable-staging.mystagingwebsite.com/settings/sites) page in the bottom left corner of the [**MyPressable Control Panel**](https://my.pressable-staging.mystagingwebsite.com/):

Find and click the **Sites** option on the left side menu and then scroll down to the **Default PHP Version** section and select which PHP version you would like all new sites to use:

Once this is updated, any new site created in your account will use that PHP version by default.
