For anyone going through these issues and uneasy about disabling a whole set of checks, there is a way to pass your own custom signatures to Intelephense.

Copied from Intelephese repo's comment (by @KapitanOczywisty):
https://github.com/bmewburn/vscode-intelephense/issues/892#issuecomment-565852100

For single workspace it is very simple, you have to create .php file with all signatures and intelephense will index them.

If you want add stubs globally, you still can, but I'm not sure if it's intended feature. Even if intelephense.stubs throws warning about incorrect value you can in fact put there any folder name.
{   
   "intelephense.stubs": [
       // ...
       "/path/to/your/stub"   
   ] 
} 
Note: stubs are refreshed with this setting change.

You can take a look at build-in stubs here: https://github.com/JetBrains/phpstorm-stubs

In my case, I needed dspec's describe, beforeEach, it... to don't be highlighted as errors, so I just included the file with the signatures /directories_and_paths/app/vendor/bin/dspec in my VSCode's workspace settings, which had the function declarations I needed:

function describe($description = null, \Closure $closure = null) {
}

function it($description, \Closure $closure) {
}

// ... and so on

Intelephense 1 3 added undefined type  function  constant  class constant  method  and property diagnostics  where previously in 1 2 there was only undefined variable diagnostics   Some frameworks are written in a way that provide convenient shortcuts for the user but make it difficult for static analysis engines to discover symbols that are available at runtime   Stub generators like https   github com barryvdh laravel-ide-helper help fill the gap here and using this with Laravel will take care of many of the false diagnostics by providing concrete definitions of symbols that can be easily discovered   Still  PHP is a very flexible language and there may be other instances of false undefined symbols depending on how code is written  For this reason  since 1 3 3  intelephense has config options to enable disable each category of undefined symbol to suit the workspace and coding style   These options are  intelephense diagnostics undefinedTypes intelephense diagnostics undefinedFunctions intelephense diagnostics undefinedConstants intelephense diagnostics undefinedClassConstants intelephense diagnostics undefinedMethods intelephense diagnostics undefinedProperties intelephense diagnostics undefinedVariables  Setting all of these to false except intelephense diagnostics undefinedVariables will give version 1 2 behaviour  See the VSCode settings UI and search for intelephense

To those would prefer to keep it simple  stupid  If you rather get rid of the notices instead of installing a helper or downgrading  simply disable the error in your settings json by adding this    intelephense diagnostics undefinedTypes   false

You don t need to downgrade you can   Either disable undefined symbol diagnostics in the settings --  intelephense diagnostics undefinedSymbols   false    Or use an ide helper that adds stubs for laravel facades  See https   github com barryvdh laravel-ide-helper

In my case  for some reason  vendor folder was disabled on VS Code settings       quot intelephense files exclude quot              quot     git    quot            quot     svn    quot            quot     hg    quot            quot    CVS    quot            quot     DS Store    quot            quot    node modules    quot            quot    bower components    quot            quot    vendor    quot    lt -- remove this line           quot    resources views    quot          By removing the line containing vendor folder it works ok on version Intelephense 1 5 4
