You might have already used the Navigate | Type declaration action when working with JavaScript or when using our other IDEs. After you’ve set them, PhpStorm will notify if the required plugins are missing or need an update. You can specify the plugins and their exact versions as the project’s requirements. PhpStorm 2018.1.1 introduces Required plugins, which you can locate under Preferences | Build, Execution, Deployment | Required Plugins.

Previously there was no way to let your colleagues know about the plugins without talking to them or writing the readme file. Suppose you’ve found an essential plugin that would help a lot with developing your project (Symfony or PHP Annotations plugins are good examples of such plugins), and you want to make sure that everybody on your team is on the same page. We encourage you to use this feature with caution, since it may cost you a bug in production. You can also use */ to suppress all inspection for the file.

PhpStorm 2018.1.1 brings the ability to suppress an inspection for the whole file: just add */ right after the first opening PHP tag or press ALT+Enter on the inspection warning and select Suppress for file in the submenu. In previous PhpStorm versions, you were able to suppress a warning for a particular statement or declaration. PhpStorm provides a lot of inspections to catch all sort of errors in your code, but it may occur that some particular code shouldn’t follow the standards set for the whole project. File-level suppression to PHP inspections You may also invoke the Check for updates action. If you don’t receive the automatic update, please check your settings under Preferences | Appearance & Behavior | System Settings | Updates and make sure that Automatically check for updates is enabled. This build delivers new features, bug fixes and improvements for PHP and the Web, and takes on the latest improvements in IntelliJ Platform. PhpStorm 2018.1.1 build 181.4445.72 is now available! You can download it here or in JetBrains Toolbox App. If you have installed the previous PhpStorm 2018.1 or PhpStorm 2018.1.1 EAP build (181.4445.32), please invoke the Check for updates action to receive the latest update.
