Hi, as the title states,  
anyone else having issue using  
This PG beta and VS code.  
ive not used vs code for a long time,  
Just fired it up and it’s not playing ball,  
the usual _unable to connect_ port 40000  
etc

oh wait!  
it says 40001

ok just checked the VSC plugin settings and I read

\*\ ***Pinegrow: Url With Port**  
Url with hostname and port of Pinegrow’s internal webserver. Note that port + 1 will be used for code editor communication. Default value is [http://localhost:40000](http://localhost:40000). In Pinegrow, use `Support → Show API url` to display the url.\*\*

so its the communication between the editor and PG I guess, not the server.

ill check some other stuff too,  
But just checking out there.  
I think everything is up to date, apart from my OS which is Mac Monterrey

Yep.

Well, I wasnt as up to date as I thought I was.  
Now have PG 9.01 installed, no longer on the beta and…

All seems to work now.  
I now have it connecting.

nothing to see here, move along the bus now please.

😁 I ran into this today, firing up VSC for the first time in a little bit.

Just a quick simple fix to update the URL.
