Excuse the basic question, but how do I use the official W3C HTML validator plugin https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/11541-w3c-validators to lint my HTML files?

I've installed it successfully and it's enabled in my plugins, but there are no instructions!

Make sure to enable the CSS | Code quality tools | W3C CSS validator inspection in Settings | Editor | Inspections - validator errors will be highlighted right in the editor, just like it happens with other inspections

This can't be done; please vote for https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-41211 to be notified on any progress with it

Thanks. When the plugin description states "Adds ability to validate HTML pages with well-known W3C validation services.", what is it referring to then?

Exactly! The plugin says HTML validator, not just CSS!
