The current version of MAMP that I have is php 5.6.10.

Is there a way to add the php 7.0.0RC2 version that can be selected in the MAMP interfaces php preferences?

This is for the free version of MAMP, not MAMP PRO.

I saw an old question (How can I add additional PHP versions to MAMP)

But I couldn't make it work because the php7.0.0RC2 doesn't have a module folder and I can't download the 7.0.0RC version in http://www.mamp.info/en/downloads/

    You could always compile it yourself, and configure it yourself, if you *really* wanted that. Why did you expect there to be a convience package for prereleases? (Anyway, asking for [prepackaged] software is off-topic.) – mario Sep 05 '15 at 13:49

PHP 7.0.0 is available as Standard Version with MAMP 3.5 (free version). They also mentioned it in the release notes:

Added component: PHP 7.0.0 incl. phpdbg (needs at least Mac OS X 10.8)

You're now free to select PHP 7 within the MAMP app preferences:

MAMP 3.5 PHP Standard Versions

I hope this helps, even though it's not the RC2 as requested.

  • @Volatil3 You can follow this [video tutorial](https://youtu.be/AczmvZJBR7A) on how to updating MAMP. I usually delete the old folders after the upgrade/migration. – Sven Jun 11 '16 at 12:48
