React app wont allow PHP after switching index to a PHP file












0















I've been coding in PHP for a few years and feel that ill be able to provide a more secure login and registration with that rather then in Reactjs.



I followed the answer from this post to switch my index.html to index.php.



Hosting the file works fine, but whenever I try to use PHP tags it gets commented out or printed directly as text. Any solution to this?

    It sounds like your host isn't executing php files but is treating them as text - so the solution is dependant on which webserver you're using - apache, nginx, etc
