I right click on the Dock icon for pgAdmin 4 – there isn’t a Configure option 
there (Options, Show Recents, Open).

I’m on Mac rather than Windows.  I looked in File, Preferences, and didn’t find 
a Fixed Port configuration there.  I also looked through the Object, Tools, and 
Help menus and didn’t see anything promising.  Searching the online help didn’t 
match “fixed port”.

Any other ideas?

Hi,

By default pgAdmin4 opens port randomly, but there is an option to choose 
static port, once you set the port, you can bookmark the link.

1.    Click on the pgAdmin 4 tray-icon
2.    Click "Configure..."
3.    Check the box labeled "Fixed Port Number?"
4.    Enter the desired port number in the field next to it
5.    Restart pgadmin and try again.

I think I’m missing something obvious and easy.  With the newer pgAdmins that 
make use of a service + web page for the application, is there a way to close 
the web page tab, and then reconnect to that existing server easily?  Such as a 
generic URL that doesn’t include the port #.

I’ve found that if I save the URL as a bookmark, then invariably the port saved 
in the URL is incorrect for the current server and I can’t reconnect.  So 
anytime I close the tab, next time I want pgAdmin, I go find the service and 
kill it, and then relaunch.

Or alternatively, is there an actual Mac App as there used to be, before the 
web page app?
