How to install a PhpStorm plugin
- Access PhpStorm settings (Linux, Windows: File > Settings, Mac: PhpStorm > Preferences)
- Choose Plugins from the IDE Settings section of the list on the left-hand side
- Now you see a list of your installed plugins
- Checked plugins are the plugins you have enabled
- Unchecked plugins are the plugins that you have disabled
- Click the Browse Repositories... button which is located under your installed plugin list
- From the popup, click a plugin for details, and double-click a plugin to download it
- Close the popup window when you are done
- Your newly downloaded plugins will be shown with green text in your plugins list. The plugin is not installed yet. When you click the Apply or OK button, PhpStorm will ask if you want to install the plugin now, or postpone. Go ahead and install the plugin now, and PhpStorm will restart with your new plugin(s) fully installed and activated.
