PHP SDK: A few questions: Can I use PHP 7.3? htdocs folder? Where is the SDK???

Hi,

I noticed in the PHP Quickstart (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/gaming/playfab/sdks/php/quickstart)

that PHP 7.1 has to be installed. I currently have PHP 7.3 since WordPress needs that. Is that a problem for the PHP SDK?

I am on a shared server, btw with Apache 2.4 pre-installed. (SSL is active on the website)

I'm not exactly sure what is meant with the /Apache24/htdocs folder. I assume it's the folder of the public site. Am I correct about that?

Also, maybe I'm overlooking it, but where exactly IS the SDK? I looked here:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/gaming/playfab/sdks/

There are a lot of SDK's, but no PHP SDK. The quickstart guide doesn't seem to have a link to the SDK either......


Additionally (not linked to the above, but rather to the forum system) :
I can't add a topic unless it's listed. I wanted to include PHP as a topic and PHP Quickstart guide, but I wasn't able to do that.

Thank you for your help in advance.

I am not expert on web development, but the htdocs folder should be the folder for the public site, and it is the default website index of Apache, which can be changed. You may find support on Apache related support community.

>>where exactly IS the SDK?

The documentation page is updated recently, there can be something missing in the new page. Please find the SDK on: https://github.com/PlayFab/PhpSdk.

Please feel free to tell us if you have any other questions.

Thank you for confirming my assumption was correct :)

I hope the Quickstart guide will be updated soon.

One question was left unanswered: The PHP version. I assume using PHP 7.3 instead of 7.1 is no problem and the guide should read "minimum 7.1" or something. Is that assumption correct?
