Disabling shortcuts
How do you disable these keyboard shortcuts? Irilyth (talk) 00:16, February 8, 2016 (UTC)
- It's not currently possible, but it's something we're open to looking into if it's desired. Could you send in your request to Special:Contact/feedback, letting us know why you'd like to disable them? Kirkburn talk contr 13:05, February 8, 2016 (UTC)
- Done! Thanks. (In case anyone reading here is curious: My main use case is when I'm using find-in-page to search only for links (by just typing characters), when I get to an "e" suddenly the page flips into edit mode.) Irilyth (talk) 13:10, February 8, 2016 (UTC)
- To disable these shortcuts, simply add *globalshortcuts_js to your adblocker. -452 17:32, March 31, 2016 (UTC)
- I don't use an ad blocker, but something similar might work. I suspect NoScript could do it, but haven't figured out how yet -- if I do, I'll update here. Irilyth (talk) 17:41, March 31, 2016 (UTC)
- As a quick followup on this topic - we are planning on adding a preference in a future update. No ETA to provide right now, though. Kirkburn talk contr 17:35, March 31, 2016 (UTC)
- I would like to support the idea of disabling the shortcuts. It's extremely annoying to push "Alt + D" (in order to get to the address bar) and to get redirected to the "delete page" instead. How to disable the Alt + D shortcut for delete page?. Thanks. Ark25 (talk) 23:08, December 3, 2016 (UTC)
Shortcuts customization?
I like this feature, but could you guys make it so admins of a wiki can customize the shortcut keys? Or, better yet, make it so each user can set their own shortcut keys as they desire (that would carry over on any wiki they visit)? — CaptFredricks [ leave a message • contributions ] 15:47, March 6, 2016 (UTC)
- That's an idea a few people have brought up since launch - it's something we're going to discuss, but we can't make any promises around it. Kirkburn talk contr 14:23, March 8, 2016 (UTC)
- Yeah, some users of my wikia asked if we could have a specific audio play when pressing 'V' Benjamin Cakir (talk) 20:36, January 2, 2017 (UTC)
Access keys when?
It must have been two years since the most recent global-nav iteration, and the access key for the search bar (and logging in) are still nowhere to be seen. Not only that, you managed to remove also RC, activity, history, whatlinkshere, move and whatnot. This sucks majorly.--PedroM 15:59, November 11, 2017 (UTC) PS: Please don't fix it with JS tho!
