I tried everything I found on Google but without success, most of them worked for PhpStorm 2017, but not for 2018.

Answer 1

1. Settings/Preferences
2. Editor | Color Scheme | General | Code
3. Identifier under caret and Identifier under caret (write)

These are the styles that allow to do what you want (Note: it works with identifiers only (e.g. variables/properties) and will not work with plain random words (e.g. a word from the string content). You may try BrowseWordAtCaret plugin if you need that to work with any word.

P.S. There is also Search Results section down below -- similar styles but for Find functionality.
