In step 4, you write "Click on New file extension and enter tpl." Did you enter "tpl" or "ctp"? I downloaded and installed Netbeans, followed the instructions you posted (with the 'ctp' extension), and it worked great. – Nu

Answer 1

Go to : Tools -> Options -> Miscellaneous -> Files

Then : Click on "New" -> Type in ctp -> Click "OK"

Associate with PHP text/x-php5

And you are finished.

I guess you need to set "Associated File Type (MIME)" = "PHP Files (text/x-php5)" – Loudermilk

No, you are not "finished." As of Netbeans 8.2, you still can not create a new file with the "ctp" extension. You can create a new file with any other extension, but it will not allow you to rename the file to a "ctp" extension. You basically need to create the file, then rename it from the OS. – Ridgepole

Answer 2

To add the ctp extension in netbeans

• Go to Tools -> Options -> Miscellaneous -> Files

• then click on "New" -> Type in ctp -> Click "OK"

• After "Associated File Type (MIME)" -> select (text/x-php5) -> Click "OK"

Same comment as above for @user442616. Netbeans will recognize the "ctp" file and syntax color it like a "PHP" file, but it still won't let you create a new file with a "ctp" extension from within the IDE. – Ridgepole

Answer 3

You could install plugin PHP CakePHP Framework and enable it for desired projects.

OK, not surprisingly, this answer actually works. Up-vote. – Ridgepole

Answer 4

Create an empty file and then put your desired extension.

This doesnt work as Netbeans automatically creates the extension for you when you choose the file type – Sass

Create an empty file with the desired extension in the desired directory/folder from the OS. Netbeans will not create the file for you, but it doesn't complain when it's there already. – Ridgepole
