Highlighting Word Doesn't Display Usages
Answered
PhpStorm always used to highlight usages when I double clicked (highlighted) a word. Now, it just stopped doing that, and I don't know how to re-enable the feature.
"Find" or "Highlight Usages in File" work fine, but I'd rather just double click on a word to reveal this like before.
How might I get this feature back?

Hello,
Usually you need simply to place a caret at a variable, method or class name to get all instances highlighted.
Try to run File > Invalidate Caches/Restart > Invalidate and Restart and check if this will work as expected afterwards.
I finally figured this out. It was a plugin called BrowseWordAtCaret that highlighted usages by just selected a string. For some reason this plugin was disabled. Enabling it brought back the functionality.
