Shortcuts plugin
-
I’m trying to avoid using my mouse so much & this forum is really horrible in question of that.
Would it be possible to add the
shortcuts
plugin?(I don’t know if it still works & I don’t have where to test it, but I hope no such problems will occur.)

Here, with Windows 10 SSD, every action with keyboard and mouse is issued. Not only Vivaldi Forums but everywhere and everything I do. Arffff" -
@JoaBravo I mean that if I want to do something with the keyboard, there’s about 90% chance I cannot do it easily, i.e. I’m forced to use the mouse even though I don’t want to. The
shortcuts
forum plugin adds a lot of useful shortcuts for the forum that make everything easier. -
Yes Please. Specially for the editor it would be great with some hotkeys for insert link and so on
-
so long:
open https://help.vivaldi.com/article/markdown-formatting/ as a panel and you can see the syntax for formatting all the time you are writing here -
@potmeklecbohdan How are you trying to navigate the forum, with spatial navigation?
-
@luetage Yes, for now. It has already caused me some headaches, especially when an upvote button (I guess it could be anything) was focused & I wanted to

@derDay I don’t care about the formatting ones, I write everything by hand, but the rest is important for me.

@potmeklecbohdan Yeah, it’s a pain, I tried it before. But Vivaldi Forum isn’t the only site that makes problems. Now there are 2 approaches: either ask every site that is hard to navigate to change their setup and/or introduce shortcuts, or come to the conclusion that spatial navigation is inherently broken and not fit to be called an accessibility feature. I phrased this harsher than needed, but I think it’s nevertheless the truth.

@potmeklecbohdan
my bad, I misunderstood your request -
@Gwen-Dragon I was also thinking of coding it myself as an extension (or maybe just adapting the plugin code), but why do so much work if it can be solved by just adding a plugin?

@Gwen-Dragon Probably this one: https://github.com/NodeBB-Community/nodebb-plugin-shortcuts

@potmeklecbohdan @Pathduck @luetage thanks for sharing this request and the link to the existing plugin. I've forwarded it internally so that the dev can consider it. I hope we get it to test it asap on our staging servers to see if it fits our current setup.
We have a very busy week ahead of us so it might take a bit of time until we can share some progress again. Thanks in advance for being patient with us. -
@Gwen-Dragon Thanks a mil
-
@Gaëlle Please just make sure to include the ability to turn shortcuts off in settings. Don’t know whether this is a part of the plugin, but we don’t want site shortcuts messing with one key shortcuts from within Vivaldi.

Sorry, I got on the wrong beach!

I’ve made a really basic userJS that supports only few actions. The code is messy, I should move all the
function
s toaction
s etc., but I thought I would share it. The config happens inkeys
, line 85.
https://gist.github.com/tiosgz/cc348fac12480107c4392b2ff706b193Yay, & I’m not sure if the userJS headers are correct, I don’t care about them since I run this via ViolentMonkey.
-
The userJS has been updated (though still it’s quite bad, at least it works) if anyone cares.
@Gaëlle may I ask about current status (still considered/will do (when?)/doesn’t work/won’t do)?
