Basically my issue is when I set the text mode to PHP my HTML is losing it's syntax highlighting whilst using the Material colour theme. It highlights all HTML as white and if i switch to HTML it highlight all PHP as white. This issue started yesterday after upgrading to Sublime build 3103. Anyone know how to fix it?

I think this kind of questions should not be asked on stackoverflow. unrelated. - Stichoza
@Stichoza From What topics can I ask about here? in the help center, software questions are allowed if they cover "[...] software tools commonly used by programmers". Sublime Text, like vim, emacs, Notepad++, etc., is a programming editor, and there are tens of thousands of questions about them on this site that are perfectly on-topic. - MattDMo
For users here in 2017+, this issue was fixed in build 3120. If your php syntax highlighting in sublime is non-existent or wonky, it is a separate issue from the one here. - Ben Schenerman

There is a thread on Sublime forum about this, it should be fixed in next development version. You could maybe downgrade to a working version until its fixed properly.

Follow these Steps-

  1. Uninstall sublime text
  2. Go to "C:\User\Appdata\local" and delete Sublime text folder

  4. Go to "C:\User" you will find Sublime text folder go inside if there are your project files then save them to other location and delete that Sublime text folder also
