Put settings in .code-workspace file to make it work

Open frankv12 opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

I had a hard time setting this up. Out of the box with the Chrome extension did not work. Neighter did setting up the file settings.json in the folder .vscode in my workspace.

However, creating a workspace file in VS Code from the menu File > Save Workspace As.. in the actual workspace did work!

Put the information as described here in the newly created .code-workspace file.

This works for me on a Windows 10 machine with XAMPP.

Might be worth updating the documentation...

Thanks for your attention. Oh yes, its a very important step. I've updated docs with an extra step (5).

Sorry, Direct Setup was broken from last few days. I've fixed it. Update (v1.2.0) the extension from Chrome Web Store . (It may take few times to roll the update globally)
