How do you upload PHP scripts to a server?

10 Tem 20:46

The method for uploading scripts depends on your server type, but with PHP, it's usually as straightforward as uploading any other file via FTP/SCP/SFTP or through your control panel (cPanel, Plesk, etc.). For example, with Node.js, you'd use `git clone` or `npm install`, but with PHP, it's more direct: just upload the `.php` file to the correct directory (like `/public_html` or `/var/www/html`) and you're done. If you want to automate the process, you can use `rsync` instead of FTP (it's more secure and faster). Just make sure to check the permissions: scripts should be readable by the server (`chmod 644`), but not directly executable (only the PHP interpreter should run them). Also, be careful not to leave temporary files or backups (.bak, .tmp) in the public folder—those are open doors for hackers!
