Installing PHP plugin in Intellij Idea Community Addition

I am trying to install PHP plugin in my Intellij Idea IDE (Community Edition version 14), I believe this is very much supported, as I see there's a plugin site showing community PHP plugin.

URL : https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/6610?pr=idea_ce

have downloaded and trying to install from option Settings > plugin > "install plugin from disk..."

when I am selecting the above downloaded plugin it is showing error

"Plugin PHP is incompatible with this installation"

can someone please help.

You need the "Ultimate Edition" to use the PHP plugin, it will not work with the free Community Edition. See: IntelliJ IDEA Editions Comparison.

If you click through for details on that plugin notice the strike-through on Community Edition under "Supported products".
