Description Jeff Warnica

Say, a Subversion tree.

Editing the .project adding in buildspec and nature from a working php project got things up and running, so this seems to be just a UI problem.

Don't you also have to add the .projectOptions file too? 

+1 for having a context menu option for "Add PHP Nature" which would add the required code into an existing .project file and generate the .projectOptions file:

        <buildSpec>
                <buildCommand>
                        <name>org.eclipse.php.core.PhpIncrementalProjectBuilder</name>
                        <arguments>
                        </arguments>
                </buildCommand>
                <buildCommand>
                        <name>org.eclipse.wst.validation.validationbuilder</name>
                        <arguments>
                        </arguments>
                </buildCommand>
        </buildSpec>
        <natures>
                <nature>org.eclipse.php.core.PHPNature</nature>
        </natures>

I think we also need to add:

<buildpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.php.core.LANGUAGE"/>

to .buildpath so that we get the "PHP Language Library" and completion for standard PHP functions etc.

Fixed in CVS.
