- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12801202, 3 years agoI don't think this is the way plugin should be programmed. I understand that authors are limited to WhateverTheNameIs API, which is a ripoff from Chrome. But I do not agree with this limitations.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Максим, 3 years agoPeople say here that the extension doesn't work but won't specify what exactly doesn't work. It actually works fine. Nevertheless there's a bug: when you enable "Sync to other devices" the entry will disappear.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12711710, 4 years agoThank you! Very useful extension. Now I can disable/change meaningless hotkeys.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firedogs, 4 years agoIf I delete the 'cookie' or 'offline website data', settings lose.
Please fix it. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14725928, 4 years agoSame as everyone else. It doesn't work and Peter and Mike just want to waste your time instead.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Kimberley Shepherd, 4 years agoNo ability to change quick search shortcuts which is what I'm looking for.
- Rated 3 out of 5by sinekonata, 4 years agoMaybe this was done for Chrome or something but I can't get ctrl+left to reliably go back. It only does so on certain sites, and it seems that it is overwritten by the site itself like DDG to be left instead of ctr+left.
In short, it behaves only partly like alt+left - Rated 5 out of 5by Tom, 4 years agoThanks for helping me disable all the idiotic built-in shortcuts like Ctrl+Shift+C that I keep triggering by muscle memory from other apps.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Alex, 4 years agodoesn't work. i want to make copy -paste with Ctrl+ins, shift insert. it doesn't even have "copy" command.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15797138, 4 years agoIt doesn't work. Tried the simplest of shortcuts on different loaded tabs (reloaded the entire browser). ... nothing ...
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 15727928, 4 years agoI really want this to be good. but it doesnt have PgDn, PgUp, Arrow keys up down left right, basically anything that you would WANT to keybind.
because you dont wanna keybind letters. you wanna keybind things that you dont press normally. but they dont recognize the keystrokes.
please add every key on a normal sized, keypad, arrow key keyboard. and once you do that, every single one of these non 5 star reviews will improve - Rated 2 out of 5by Francois_C, 4 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Infinity, 4 years agoThis is exactly what I've been looking for on Firefox. The features and settings look great but in practice it's totally useless because it does absolutely nothing and won't work under any circumstances. The extension displays my saved hotkeys (and their corresponding actions) but NONE of the shortcuts ever work.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14628831, 4 years agoWould have been great, if only [;'\ were allowed for mapping to. This tell me that it's either bad implementation of good code, bad code, or technical limitations on part of gecko or firefox. Either way, this is useless, if you can't use your preferred keys.

- Rated 2 out of 5by bb, 4 years agoSeems to be ported from Chrome, in a sloppy, as it has references to it, and WON'T LET YOU OVERRIDE THE DEFAULTS, so basically it's misleading, at least for FF76 on MacOS.

- Rated 5 out of 5by NC, 4 years agoProbably one of the most under-appreciated (by public rating) Extensions on the entire Firefox Add-ons site. This Extension is one of the most powerful Add-ons any Firefox customization hacker could hope for. Unfortunately for them the source of that power is also the likely cause for the low rating, using its best features (hotkey initiated custom JS) requires extensive developer knowledge and testing time. Couple that with the incredibly unfriendly tiny UI Window (with hidden Save Button) and it is no wonder new users find difficulty & rate it low.
It seems like the "Run custom JS" feature is treated as an afterthought, but I wish the devs would extend it, for example: JQuery support; custom CSS/HTML/DOM; pass dynamic parameters to commands (ie: use JS to find a particular anchor or img.src then go to it in a new tab); Download/Save a resource by URL (option to bypass save-as dialog); would be awesome to be able to call a particular context menu item of an object on the page;
Currently I am using multiple add-ons to do most of what I need, but as I mentioned even without those dream features this is by far one of my favorite extensions available. HIGHLY RECOMMEND for those that know how to code. - Rated 2 out of 5by Ar-Pharazon, 4 years agoNo ctrl+e for Home page like Firefox used to do all on it's own and PaleMoon still does.
