Is it possible to get ioncube working with Studio?

Hi 😊👋

Some themes and plugins use ioncube to encode the PHP files. So, I need to install ionCube loaders or something like that on Studio to get these themes and plugins working.

Why is this important? Many paid themes and plugins use this encoder to hide some PHP file source code... Without ioncube support, it won't be possible to use those themes and plugins at all.

Very interesting, thanks for sharing @babakfp. I'll be honest, this is my first time hearing about ionCube. 😅 Are there any publicly available themes or plugins that use ionCube that you can share? It would be useful for testing. Thanks!

Thank you for taking a look into this.

I found this free plugin that uses ionCube to encode some .php files.

RTL-CareUnit.zip

Open the plugin folder in your code editor, search for 'ionCube Loader' and you'll find files that are encoded with ionCube.

The language that the plugin above uses is not English. You can use AI to translate it if needed. The language is Farsi/Persian.

You can find tutorials on how for example people install ionCube on XAMPP.
