I’ve gone through guide after guide, including the old one from years ago on here about using xdebug and PhpStorm. But zero luck.

I’m on a Mac, now running Sequoia. I’ve tried anything and everything that I can possibly think of, but nothing.

I **can** get phpstorm to trigger when the site is started/stopped - but that is triggered via the cli. Which isn’t helpful.

I am looking for breakpoint support in the IDE. Am I missing something major here, or is it still not working for anyone?

I’d really **really** appreciate any support that anyone can offer. Otherwise, I don’t know what else to do but move from DevKinsta, which works great for my normal WP dev needs, but I need to be able to debug.

…please 🤲

Hello @macwpdev 👋 Welcome to the Kinsta community!

I see you stated you checked guide after guide, but I just want to make sure you checked out this one:

> **[Troubleshooting - Xdebug Support - Kinsta® Docs](https://kinsta.com/docs/devkinsta/devkinsta-troubleshooting/xdebug-support/#configure-xdebug-with-your-ide-or-editor)**
>
> Xdebug is included with the FPM Docker image for DevKinsta. In this guide, we'll show you how to configure it with your site in DevKinsta.

Did you try this and did it help?

Kind regards
