This Guide explains how to change the php version for ALL folders / sites on your hosting account, if you want to change a specific site to a different version of php please see this article :

We have php 8.1 as the default version of php on our shared hosting servers (at the time of writing this article it may be newer/higher now)

To use a different version of PHP (From PHP v5.4 to 8.3 or above) simply log into your control panel, then in here click on 'Select PHP Version' , then in the drop down selector choose the version of PHP you would like to use, then click on 'Set as current'.
