Check a shared PHP header
Preview the rendered page after updating a supported PHP include in your project.
Preview PHP pages
See what the server produces.
A page uses PHP includes for its header or content. Use the configured remote preview to see the generated page rather than just its source.
What you can do
Use it on your own website.
Preview a server-rendered PHP page, including its shared header, on your configured hosting.
Review generated content
Inspect the page output with the required server environment in place.
Keep preview work separate
Use the temporary preview area on your configured hosting and check which files are uploaded.

Useful details
Questions about this task.
Check how this works with your project and hosting.
Can I run PHP preview without hosting?
No. This workflow needs a connected server with PHP support. The local static preview does not include a PHP runtime.
Is the temporary preview private?
It is separate from published page paths, but can be reachable through a public URL. It is not an access-controlled private environment. Server rules, dependencies and database configuration can also affect how the preview behaves.
