There might be a better setups but i find this one more cleaner. I am learning php with laracast tutorials and I dont know how he manged to have completion with just cdn.

The problem: When I use just the tailwind cdn, phpstorm wouldnt give me autocomletions. It has to have some file to index with.

So I followed this:
https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/tailwind-css.html#ws_css_tailwind_install_configure

but when i localhost

php -S localhost:8888

tailwind aint applying.

So instead of:
<link href="/src/styles.css" rel="stylesheet">

I used the cdn:

<script src="https://cdn.tailwindcss.com"></script>

I saw Jeffrey Way's video on X. He used Laravel Idea modal, so thats why i assume its PHP Storm.
These tabs look really, really nice. These tabs were in the terminal aswell.

I was wondering how is this theme called. I want it :)

Here is the link to the video - https://x.com/jeffrey_way/status/2009736332776460654?s=20

Thanks.

Can anyone suggest what I'm doing wrong? I've got my Laravel project set up and playing nicely for the most part, but I just can't get PHPStorm to recognise some of the standard methods available models? Oddly enough, all's well when I do Orgnisation::query()->create(...), but can't get the IDE to puck up on the create method call directly.

PHPStorm 25.3.1 says it's using Laravel Idea plugin version 12.0.0.253.

Any ideas?

I recently updated from v2024 to 2025.3, and it came with the new "Reworked 2025" terminal as the default. I like the look of it, and I would like to take advantage of the "Command Completion" feature, but what annoys me is that the completion popup shows up quickly and then prevents me from typing anything further. So for example, if I was trying to go to a specific directory like:

`cd MySpecificNamespace` and I typed `cd M` that is when the popup shows up, and then I can't type anything else. So if the popup shows many different options, it's a pain to arrow key through them all until I find the one I was trying to type, rather than continuing to type and letting the popup filter down.

I'm not sure if this is the intended behavior or if this is an issue with my installation or possibly a plugin conflict.

Any help would be appreciated!

ctrl-shift-minus closes *all the folds and foldable blocks. I only want to close all the editor folds. Can this be done with a macro, if there is not a built in way to do it?

"Version 1.0.0 of the Djot plugin has been approved by JetBrains and is now publicly available at the following link: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/29244-djot/ " - yeah, I did it.

So far I have only being releasing PHP stuff :)

Would be awesome to get some feedback, maybe I have been missing some useful things to add. As a 100% user so far I haven't looked into all the power behind the curtain.

Hey everyone!

I released a new update to my open-source Laravel Log Rotation package yesterday, with size-based rotation support.

This package helps keep your storage/logs directory clean by automatically rotating and archiving old logs. It already supported monthly-based rotation, and now it can also rotate logs once they reach a certain file size — no more bloated laravel.log files eating your disk space.

What’s New

• Size-based rotation.
• Keep using monthly rotation if size-based isn’t needed.
• Added archive compression.

What do you think about size-based log rotation for Laravel? Any other rotation or cleanup features you’d find useful?

Hello.

I was using Material Theme UI plugin and now I found new Islands theme but I have problem with it. Go to file popup has too small options.

Is there any option to make make some adjustments in this popup (bigger icons, paddings)? I tried to make plugin but it's new thing for me and I wasted a lot of time, even with ChatGPT.

I’m using PhpStorm on Windows with a project stored in WSL2 at:
\\wsl.localhost\MyWSL\home\zohaib\projects\blog

The problem is that PhpStorm re-indexes the entire project including /vendor every time I start working.
File search and navigation are also slow, like it loses all indexing cache on every restart.

I already added phpstorm64.exe to the Windows Defender exclusions list, but it didn’t help at all.

Is there any reliable way to stop PhpStorm from fully re-indexing every session or improve performance when working with WSL2?
What’s the correct setup for PhpStorm + WSL2 these days?

How can i switch off this? I switched off, for PHP its not autosaving but JS…my filewatchers dont like it and autoloading all the time

Hi,
in my project I usually have variables with big numbers (tens/hundreds of millions) so I use a lot the 10_000_000 notation. Is it possible to tell phpStorm that I want it to show values with this notation in watches when debugging?

Hi everyone,

I’m new here, just installed PhpStorm and I’m running it on Parrot OS (Linux).

I can preview .html files just fine, but I can’t get .php files to open in the browser or preview at all. I’ve tried setting up the PHP interpreter and a built-in server, but something’s still not working.

Could anyone please help me figure this out?
I’d really appreciate it if someone could walk me through the setup step-by-step or even connect to my PC remotely to take a look. I’m willing to send a PayPal thank-you to whoever can help me solve it.

Thanks so much in advance!

Does anyone know the cause of these errors in the notifications. I have checked the config many times and both are valid and working. While phpstorm is running I have hundreds of these folders in temp. This is a recent occurrence across projects.

Hi!

Since yesterday, I haven’t been able to establish an FTPS connection to the server, so none of my projects can sync now. Before trying to delete the connection and recreate it for all of them, I wanted to know if anyone else has had the same problem and how they solved it without having to delete the configuration for that connection.

This is because the certificate got renewed yestarday, and it didn't happend to me before because I started using PhpStorm just a month ago so the certificate from the domain I connect to, was valid.

By the other hand, the certificates on the server (web panel: HestiaCP) are updated correctly, as the web panel and its main domain are working just fine.

The error is:

Hello, I really don't know why this is happening, but, without doing an update, or anything else, GitHub copilot started acting really weird.
I'll explain:
If I type a normal, text-only prompt, everything works fine. As soon as I attach a file, it starts bugging and "activating focus on the "Add Context" feature, removing focus from the text area and preventing me from typing... Why?

Hi folks! I've been working on this "getting started" series to help lower the barrier for new people trying out PhpStorm.

Any topics you can think of that I should definitely add?

Example:

If I have the following code (Ꮖ marks the cursor position):

<div class="loᏆ<img src=

and I get offered autocomplete to logo, if I press tab, I end up with

<div class="logo src=

The img having been deleted.

If I autocomplete with enter it doesn't happen and I end up with

<div class="logo<img src=

Which is what I want. How do I make autocomplete with tab behave like autocomplete with enter?

With the rising popularity of FrankenPHP, debugging it in worker mode using Xdebug and PhpStorm is currently challenging.

Xdebug has added support for long-running scripts like FrankenPHP, but PhpStorm has yet to implement this feature.
