Hello Adobe

What consideration have you intend to do in relation to DW CC in connection with php7 and database connection and server behaviors.
Have until now used php5.6 but the future is already here with php7

Sincerely

Brian Nielsen

    First this is a user to user forum.

    As far as PHP7 goes, they are I believe going to update the php code hints to include php 7.

    As for MySQLi, I would vote a definite NO, as I use PDO so why should they waste time doing anything for MySQLi.

    If you wish to use MySQLi then 3rd part extensions are available from -

    Best to just Google mysqli tutorials. Its amazingly simple after a couple of hours practice. Youll wonder why you ever relied on an extension which can only offer you very limited options. I guarantee you will see all in a different light and start to do things that you always wished you could do but couldnt because an extension was snuffing out your progress.

    As PZ said, MySQLi is not used by the majority of Dreamweaver users.

    Those that can't code manually, can purchases extensions from WebAssist (mysqli) or DMX Zone (pdo) to replace the deprecated behavior panels.
