How can I change the port of the LiveEdit feature in WebStorm ?

The default port is 63342, so i can run my project from : http://localhost:63342/PROJECT_NAME. but due to authentication issues I need to switch to another fixed port number.

Help please, Thanks

WebStorm 8

In WebStorm 8 follow menu (or press Shortcut Alt+F7):

File -> Settings

Category:

IDE Settings -> Debugger -> JavaScript

And there change "Built-in server port".

Hint:

If you have a firewall warning when starting WebStorm then you must uncheck the checkbox "Can accept external connections" inside the settings window.

WebStorm 9, 10, 11

In newer WebStorm Versions you'll have to enter the Settings like explained above, but enter a different category.

Category:

Build, Execution, Deployment -> Debugger
