Is there any way to make comments stand out (bold/color)?

Sometimes I really want an important commment to stand out from the rest. Currently, the way I do this is to add @todo in front of the comment, but this is annoying because it's not actually a todo item (I just want the line to stand out).

Is there any kind of markup available that can make text bold and/or change the color, kind of like a todo?

Thanks!

Not really.

But you still can use TODOs for that:

just use different marker/"prefix" (instead of "todo", e.g. "NOTE:") -- "Settings | TODO". You can set up different colors just for that.
in actual TODOs tool window, you can set up filtering to filter out such fake todos

Alternatively, use different comment type. IDE can have different colors for // (line comment) or /* */ (block comment) and /** */ (PHPDoc block comment)

As of 2022 you can actually add new patterns with cutomize colors in "SETTINGS | Editor > TODO"

I "fixed" this by adding this TODO pattern in settings:

\/\/ [^ ].*

It matches a comment that start with two slashes, exactly 1 space and whatever follows (but no space right after the first one!)

So you can use:

// This is an actual comment that you can give a standing out color
letsDoThis();
// Comment out code below
//if ($condition) {
//  doSomething()
//}

You can add the “Better Highlights” plugin. Then in Settings → Editor → Better Highlights → Comment Tokens you can add your custom tokens and their style to highlight.
