      i did everything but when i recheck php.ini there’s no sign of ioncube loader. btw i use zpanel
      PHP Version 5.3.10
      Thread Safety disabled

      i added this line:
      zend_extension = /usr/local/lib/ioncube/ioncube_loader_lin_5.3.so
      to both “/etc/php5/cli/php.ini” and “/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini”

      Step 2 may lead to unexpected results. You may find php.ini, but the wrong one. There are two, one for the CLI, and this is what you will find. In step 3 you see the info-page trick. If you open that page, you can search for php.ini, and you’ll see the path to the php.ini that the webserver uses.
