Php code highlight in Jekyll kramdown don't work

Question

I'm using Jekyll with kramdown and pygments, it work fine for javascript or python code but When I create php like:

{% highlight php %}
header('Content-Type: application/json');

echo json_encode(array(
    'jsonrpc' => "2.0",
    'result' => $result,
    'id' => $request->id,
    'error' => null
));
{% endhighlight %}

Each line is one span with x class:

<code class="language-php" data-lang="php"><span class="x">header('Content-Type: application/json');</span>
<span class="x">echo json_encode(array(</span>
<span class="x">    'jsonrpc' =&gt; "2.0",</span>
<span class="x">    'result' =&gt; $result,</span>
<span class="x">    'id' =&gt; $request-&gt;id,</span>
<span class="x">    'error' =&gt; null</span>
<span class="x">));</span></code>

Why I don't have tokens with different classes for php code?

If you want to forget the php opening tag at the beginning of you code block, you have to set the Pygments startinline parameter to true.

{% highlight php startinline=true %}

See Pygments documentation

As of Aug 8, 2016, From https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll/issues/1633#issuecomment-238383509

We don't support Pygments anymore. We use Rouge.

The new syntax is as follows:

```php?start_inline=true

header('Content-Type: application/json');

echo json_encode(array(
    'jsonrpc' => "2.0",
    'result' => $result,
    'id' => $request->id,
    'error' => null
));

```

Unfortunately it does not work. The ```php?start_inline=true``` is printed within the code block. – JCarlosR Apr 15 '17 at 14:35
@JCarlos you must have some other plugins interfering. Try the default jekyll example on gitlab pages https://gitlab.com/pages/jekyll – Jeff Puckett Apr 15 '17 at 15:41
I don't remember me adding plugins. And my project doesn't have a ```_plugins``` folder. Can I use the Gitlab example in Github pages? Thank you. – JCarlosR Apr 15 '17 at 16:46
