Search for usages in a project - kiril-dragomirov/PHPStorm GitHub Wiki

You can search for usages of a symbol in your whole project or in a scope that you set.

1. Select the %code element% for which you want to find usages. Note that you can extend your search to file usages as well.

2. From the main menu select Edit | Find | Find Usages (Alt+F7).

3. Check the results in the Find tool window.

You can also pull out the results from the previous Find Usages actions. From the main menu, select Edit | Find | Recent Find Usages and the usage query in question.

If PhpStorm doesn't return any results, it will display a message suggesting to opt for more options. You can follow the link or press Ctrl+Shift+Alt+F7 to open the Find Usages dialog where you can set a new scope for your search.
