Hello! I was trying to upload a test site to a shared hosting that clearly uses FTP, I was seeing what were the possibilities of being able to upload the php template there, since it uses composer, etc. Any solution or tip to do it? I was seeing that you can use something like phpshell to run composer, but I would like to know what options there are. Thanks for the help! ---

Hey Julian, welcome to the Prismic community! I'm not sure fully I understand your use case, if you give me some more details we can figure out a solution for this together 🖖 Where are you trying to upload your site? You're using Prismic with your the PHP-kit, is that right? ---

Hey paulina! Thanks for the help! So im using the prismic php template and just for testing things i want to deploy the app that i made to a cheap FTP server. The php kit is using composer and another tools so i wanted to know if is possible to deploy the app on a ftp server (shared hosting) and the steps to do it. Thanks for help!! 🙏 ---

Ok I see. So, at the moment the only documented recommendation we have to deploy PHP projects is by using Heroku, have you tried it before? Our two example PHP projects (The [Multi-Page Site](https://user-guides.prismic.io/en/articles/868744-sample-multi-page-site-with-navigation-in-php) and the [Sample Blog](https://user-guides.prismic.io/en/articles/868735-sample-blog-with-api-based-cms-in-php)) also recommend these same steps: ### Deploy & go live with Heroku Once you have successfully [signed up](https://signup.heroku.com/) and installed the [Heroku toolbelt](https://toolbelt.heroku.com/): Create a file with the name Procfile at your application root. Put the following code in the Procfile file: ```auto web: vendor/bin/heroku-php-apache2 public ``` Create a new Heroku application ```auto heroku create ``` Initialize a new Git repository ```auto git initheroku git:remote -a your-heroku-app-name ``` Commit your code to the Git repository and deploy it to Heroku ```auto git add .git commit -am "make it better"git push heroku master ``` Ensure you have at least one node running ```auto heroku ps:scale web=1 ``` You can now browse your application online ```auto heroku open ``` Let me know if Is this useful for you 🏄‍♂️ ---
