Changing the PHP version on the server takes 3 minutes. During this time, any changes made will not be visible on the page.
Since the web browser keeps the connection to the web server open for a certain period of time, the PHP process with the previous PHP version is also in use for that long. It is recommended to close and reopen the web page to start a new PHP process on the server with the already changed PHP version.
