A plugin is an OSGi bundle and OSGi bundles usually don't care if the actual eclipse IDE is currently used to develop Java or PHP.

eclipse bundles may be designed to contribute to certain extension points so there's a chance, that your plugin contributes to JDT extension points which are not "visible" (bad word, hope you know what I mean) from the PHP development tools.

It may depend on some other bundles that are not available or have not been installed/started. Execute the platform with the -command option to get the OSGi command line interface and check the status of your plugins. (help shows available commands)
