## What it is
pH7Builder (formerly pH7CMS) is a self-hosted, open-source PHP 8.2+ CMS for building white-label dating sites, matchmaking communities, and social networks. It ships with member profiles, matchmaking, chat, messaging, paid memberships, and moderation tools, giving owners full control over code, hosting, and member data.

## Use cases
- launch a self-hosted dating website
- build a white-label matchmaking community
- create a social network with paid memberships
- own my dating platform data instead of using SaaS
- start a niche dating or community portal
- run a membership platform with subscriptions and moderation

## When to choose
- you want full ownership of code, hosting, and member data under an MIT license
- you need dating-specific features like matchmaking, nearby search, and scam detection out of the box
- you can run your own PHP 8.2+/MySQL 8.0+ web server
- you want to customize the source for a niche community

## When to avoid
- you need a fully managed hosted solution with no server administration
- your project is not a dating, social, or community site
- you require a stack other than PHP/MySQL
- you expect a small lightweight library rather than a full CMS application
