Server Side Includes in Cloud Hosting
As our customized cloud hosting platform supports Server Side Includes on a global level, it is possible to use this function with all of the cloud hosting packages we offer you and bring dynamic content to your websites with a few clicks. SSI is activated for each specific domain or subdomain by inserting an .htaccess file in the website folder with a couple of lines of code. Naturally, you do not have to be a programmer for that because the necessary code can be copied from the Help article that we have about Server Side Includes. If you would like to utilize this feature for your website, you will need to rename your website files from .html to .shtml plus you've got to double-check if all links on your website point to the updated names.
