I'm wondering if there is a way to store common blocks of code in PHP Storm so you can easily paste them later. I don't particularly want to use the extended Clipboard as that eventually goes away.
It would be great if I could store it and set a hot key so I can easily paste it.
Is this possible?
You have multiple options which you can mix and match. In descending order of usefulness (IMHO):
Tools - Save file as template
