Update from ubuntu 18 ssh php wordpress

[josejtax]

Hello, I'm trying to update my VPS server with Ubuntu 18 wordpress php, in the server I already have php 13 since I do the command

$ php -v

and I see that I am using php 13, but when I see the wordpress system I see that it is working with php 12, how can I change the php in wordpress from my server with ssh?

Do you have the server hosted or run it private?

I have it privately, that is to say I am in charge of the management of the server. The company that I have hosted the server "supposedly" can not enter in my vps

Normally a good host should more than well be capable of helping you with all necessary steps.

Talk with them and if they can't fix this, change host.
