Can't add Remote PHP interpreter
Hi, I'm using IntelliJ IDEA 2023.3.6 (Ultimate Edition) with PHP now.
I tried to use a docker container for PHP interpreter and followed the guide
https://blog.jetbrains.com/phpstorm/2016/11/docker-remote-interpreters/
but in my environment, "Remote" option didn't appear for selecting CLI Interpreter.

In this case, how can I add a docker container (or image?) as an interpreter?

Hey, I am having the same problem. I wonder if something recently changed. I only have the ‘Local path to interpreter’ option.
Hi there,
Do you have PHP Remote Interpreter plugin installed and enabled? It's bundled by default with PhpStorm, most likely requires manual installation in IntelliJ IDEA.
Thanks, that was indeed the issue for me. I had to install the PHP Remote Interpreter and PHP Docker plugins.
It worked for me after just installing the PHP Docker plugin.
