If hosting also forcing you to change PHP. Better find another one either consider upgrading.

Change your hoster, there are many decent hosting in that market, why siteground? 
Mate of mine had hosting there, they did not give out ftp details.

now it works. it was matter of dynamic cache

 

regarding php. the server forced to version 7.4.33

a few months ago, and everything went fine.

 

So prestashop 1.6.1.24 works on PHP 7.4.33 and Mysql 8

i think the compatibilty chart tells  if the software has been tested or not

Anyway, i don't want to give  any wrong information to other developers.

 

what i wrote is only my own experience
