Hi @kittenofd00m

Enabling XDebug has been added to the DevKinsta UI as of [version 2.9.0](https://community.kinsta.com/t/devkinsta-releases-minor/371/14). After reviewing the article you shared, it seems that you can skip steps A and B and simply enable XDebug in the DevKinsta UI. Then, proceed directly to step C to configure PHPStorm.

Although, It is always recommended to make a backup of your data before making any changes.

I have also forwarded your feedback to our developers, and hopefully, we can release an official help page for configuring PHPStorm. 🙂
