Suppress an inspection in the Inspection Results tool window

• In the Inspection Results tool window (after running code analysis), right-click the inspection you want to suppress and select the necessary suppress action.

Enable suppressed inspections

When you suppress an inspection, the IDE adds the /** @noinspection */ annotation before the selected symbol. For example, if you suppress an inspection for a method, PhpStorm adds the annotation before this method.

• To re-enable a suppressed inspection, delete the /** @noinspection */ annotation.

  

1. Place the caret at a code element highlighted by an inspection in the editor and press Alt+Enter.

   A list with available fixes and context actions opens. Locate the inspection fix that is marked with .

2. Click the right arrow next to the fix to open the inspection's options and select Disable highlighting, keep fix.

   

The name of the inspection for which you are changing the severity is written above the inspection's options.

• By default, PhpStorm highlights all detected code problems. Hover the mouse over the widget in top-right corner of the editor and select another level from the Highlight list:

  • None: turn highlighting off.

  • Syntax: highlight syntax problems only.

  • All Problems: (default) highlight syntax problems and problems found by inspections.

  

• You can also change the highlighting level from the main menu. Select or press Ctrl+Alt+Shift+H.
