Web Hosting for Serendipity Blog - Requirements & Providers

Serendipity is a simple and flexible weblog publishing system that is available to users as free software. Find suitable Serendipity web hosting providers in our clear price comparison.

Although Serendipity can also be used as a content management system for creating static websites, it is mainly used to realize dynamic weblog content. There is a wide selection of plugins available that allow users to expand their own blog with features such as podcasts or image galleries. Additionally, numerous templates are offered to customize the design. Operating multiple websites under the same address is also possible with Serendipity web hosting. Due to its complicated name, the software is also simply known as s9y in professional circles.

Requirements for Serendipity Web Hosting

Serendipity is based on the PHP scripting language and requires an up-to-date PHP version for web hosting. Supported database systems include MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite. The software is primarily developed to run on an Apache web server, but users with expertise in handling web servers can also get the weblog publishing system to work on Microsoft IIS, Lighttpd, or Nginx. While the installation of Serendipity only requires a few MB of disk space, appropriate capacities should be planned depending on the published content. Typically, a modest 64 MB of PHP memory limit is sufficient. Detailed information on PHP settings and other technical requirements for Serendipity web hosting can be found in the following table:
 

Technical Requirements for Serendipity 2.4
PHP Version PHP 7.3.
Databases MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite
Web Server Apache, Nginx, IIS, Lighttpd
Recommended PHP Memory Limit 64 MB
Required PHP Extensions PCRE, GDlib, mbstring, iconv, zlib
Recommended PHP Settings safe_mode OFF, register_globals OFF, allow_url_fopen ON

Detailed information on the technical requirements for the latest version can be found directly from the developer at: https://docs.s9y.org/docs/faq/index.html
