Extension summary

With Keyboard Shortcuts for Websites, you can define custom keyboard shortcuts for certain actions of websites you use frequently.

You can also export your custom shortcuts and share them with your friends or your teammates.

Version 1.7

  • Name changed from "In-site Shortkeys" to "Keyboard Shortcuts for Websites"
  • Script shortcuts functionality removed
  • Prevent on input focus option added for individual shortcuts too.

Notice:

  • It works only on websites.
  • Shortcuts would trigger just when the focus is on the site itself.
  • You need to trigger shortcuts on which page you define otherwise it will not find the target elements of its steps.
  • You can't override some browser-reserved keyboard shortcuts.
  • Because of new policies, it's impossible to inject Javascript codes and run it on a website, so I decided to remove the functionality of adding shortcuts for executing scripts that was available on the previous version.

I recently started using an extension to assign hotkeys to web buttons, and it's amazing! It simplifies navigation and speeds up task execution. The setup is straightforward, and the interface is intuitive. Now I can quickly perform actions that used to take time. I recommend it to anyone looking to boost their efficiency online!

Simply does not work tried this extension with Chrome, Vivaldi browsers and I only get the red pop up error: "Step calling failed because the element was not found. Maybe you are on the wrong page." Always. I really wanted this to work. I think Im using this wrong. There are no directions/instruction on how to use this.

Can't see the "Script Shortkey" button. Only the "click shortkey" option is visible.
