Menu
I want to find a folder in the project navigation by typing in the location, just like I would when using the "Navigate to file" shortcut. How do I do that? I currently have to scroll and click on each folder to get to the place I want.

From the main menu, select Edit | Find | Find in Files Ctrl+Shift+F . In the search field, type your search string. Alternatively, in the editor, highlight the string you want to find and press Ctrl+Shift+F . PhpStorm places the highlighted string into the search field.
idea folder (hidden on OS X) in the solution root contains IntelliJ's project specific settings files. These include per-project details such as VCS mapping and run and debug configurations, as well as per-user details, such as currently open files, navigation history and currently selected configuration.
Use the Navigation bar as a handy tool to find your way across the project. Press Alt+Home to activate the Navigation bar. Use the arrow keys or the mouse pointer to locate the desired file. Double-click the selected file, or press Enter to open it in the editor.
Well -- you still can use Navigate | File... for folders -- you just have to use "/" or "\" at the end to specify that you want to see folders (works in PhpStorm v8).
Another solution (for frequently used folders) -- mark it as favorite. You can then optionally use standard Alt+F1, 1 (Navigate | Select In... | Project View) to locate it in Project View panel.
For very frequently used folders -- you can just bookmark it (but not ordinary bookmark -- mnemonic bookmark instead -- it will associate a letter or digit with it).
