Can't type a $ in WebStorm PHPStorm IntelliJ Pycharm Appcode or something else by Jetbrains?

If you're using a Jetbrains IDE I just wanted to let you know the solution to a problem that took me forever to find.

The problem

You just can't type a "$". Like anywhere. In any kind of file.

Example:

You're writing a scss file and you want to define a variable ($var) with a value of 3.

Your goal is thus to write:

$var : 3;

So you type Shift + 4,var : 3; expecting to get $var : 3, but what you get instead is:

var : 3;

The solution:

If you're using this plugin: Extended Code Sense[1]

  • Disable and remove it.

else

  • Disable your plugins one by one until you find the source of the problem.

1. It is worth noting that the plugin has not been updated since 2010
