cPanel v126 Is Here – Small Changes, Better Experience

The latest cPanel 126 shared hosting update is now live on our servers at JetHost. While most of the changes are behind the scenes or focused on system-level improvements, there are still some updates that shared hosting users will appreciate.
Here’s a quick overview of what’s new and worth knowing if you manage your website through cPanel.

1. A Smoother And Faster cPanel Experience

This version brings subtle speed improvements to many of the tools inside cPanel. Whether you’re uploading files, managing email accounts, or using the Zone Editor, the interface feels more responsive especially during busy times of day.

You may not notice dramatic changes, but the system is a bit more efficient overall.

2. Better Interface Behavior And Bug Fixes

Small UI bugs and quirks have been addressed. For example:

  • Icons load faster and more consistently
  • Session timeouts behave more reliably
  • Interface glitches in File Manager and Email Filters have been fixed

It’s the kind of maintenance work you don’t always see but it improves your daily workflow.

At JetHost, we’ve rolled out the cPanel 126 shared hosting update across all compatible plans, giving our clients access to the latest interface and performance improvements.

3. Improved Webmail Experience

If you use Webmail like Roundcube to check your email, you may notice smoother load times and fewer display issues. There have been improvements to how Webmail interacts with your browser, especially when switching between folders or composing messages.

Also, certain older browser compatibility issues have been cleaned up behind the scenes.

4. Under-the-hood Updates For Better Security

cPanel 126 includes updates to many of the core services that keep your account safe like DNS tools, email handling, and background services. These don’t require any action from you, but they help strengthen the overall environment your site and email are running in.

This includes more accurate domain verification, updated spam rules, and cleaner SSL management workflows.

Bonus – PHP Versions And Compatibility Tools

While not unique to version 126, many users don’t realize how easy it is to manage their PHP version in cPanel. The MultiPHP Manager is still available and improved in newer cPanel releases, helping you:

  • Switch PHP versions per domain
  • Match plugin or CMS requirements (like WordPress or Joomla)
  • Avoid compatibility errors after updates

We support 11 versions of PHP – from PHP 5.6 to PHP 8.4. We keep the available PHP versions updated and tested. If your site relies on a specific version, you can select it through the MultiPHP Manager – fully supported and working smoothly in version 126.
