But practice and coding is the most important thing [...]

That's the key - and the truly will to do so!

A cook is not just reading cookbooks. Become a cook by cooking > Become a coder by coding

It makes no sense to begin useless stuff to code just for learnig - this brings less elation. First go through the basics of PHP (basic functions, syntax, ...), then try to find a simple project you wish to start. Take your basics and find solutions for every further step you need to achieve with help of all PHP resources available on the net.
And never forget there are many ways to achieve a goal - there is never one and only way but there are bad ways and ways reflecting the character and identity of a coder.

One more advice. "Trial and Error". Just try. So you can learn how things work. Furthermore you will learn how things do not work what it also essesntial for coding.
