Live Edit - Does it work Remotely Follow

Created September 12, 2012 15:56

I really like live edit - using the demo version of webstorm for 30 days but I will be buying it or PHPstorm.

I have setup a project and connected to a remote server. When I save my files (css in this case) are auto uploaded to the remote server, all good so far.
However live edit doesn't work even though I have live edit working on local server.

Does live edit work on remote website or just local?

Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,

As far as I'm aware it works with local server only: "if uri resolves to local net, so, it is inspectable (regardless domain name and domain zone)".

LiveEdit bundled with WS/S 5.0 contains bug related to this logic, fixed in 5.0.1.
