- by darkconsole, 2 years agoRated 5 out of 5the ability to run custom javascript within the page on a hotkey was a damn godsend, since all the bookmark toolbar plugins that used to let you do alt+whatever apparently can no longer execute bookmarklets that start with the javascript: prefix. a blessing in disguise because now i don't have to write these obtuse as hell double encoded javascript bookmarklets to do things like ninja videos out of their players - now i can do it with properly formatted scripting that is easy to update.
- by Firefox user 14168767, 3 years agoRated 5 out of 5Worked like a charm for my needs (ctrl+1 and ctrl+9)
- by wildhearts1, 3 years agoRated 2 out of 5I use ctrl+shift+u key combination for 'Copy URL' but copied text always has a new line feed before url text.
Do you know any solution or could you fix it? - by Firefox user 14128409, 3 years agoRated 2 out of 5After re-install backspace deactivate shortcut doesn't work.
- by The Beard Below My Chin, 3 years agoRated 5 out of 5Very good add-on. The fact you can use The Konami code as a hotkey is frikken brilliant. Another gem, I wished I discovered sooner.
@ Davin it does has scroll up/down RTFM. - by Firefox user 12837810, 3 years agoRated 5 out of 5Very good. Thanks!
Problem: Some form fields are not recognized as such.
So, if shortcuts are assigned to alpha-letters, or to cursor keys, the filed becomes unusable.
A stopgap measure would be to have a Button to enable/disable the extension.
An example: Try to comment on:

(unfortunately, you have to register first, free of course). - by Davin, 3 years agoRated 4 out of 5Could better if it adds "Page Up" "Page Down" actions to dropdown choices. "Scroll" and "Scroll more" is not enough. Thanks for a great extension so far. I love it!
- by Firefox user 12531918, 3 years agoRated 5 out of 5How about scroll down/scroll up/mouse click triggers?
- by forMoz, 3 years agoRated 3 out of 5This is the most amount of permissions I have seen any addon ask for. What on earth does assigning a key have anything to do with accessing my data on all web pages ??
Updated to 3star as the dev disclosed why the permissions. Seems very intrusive and am going back to Vivaldi because FF is lousy about giving us control in this matter. - by tipar, 3 years agoRated 1 out of 5

- by EVADER, 3 years agoRated 3 out of 5Hi.
Can you please add the shortcut option to open the bookmarks sidebar (Ctrl+B)?
I use the option a lot and I would like to make it open the Firefox bookmark sidebar by pressing the F1 key.
When can you add that option?
Regards. - by Firefox user 13655504, 3 years agoRated 2 out of 5doesnt seem to work.. i entered ctrl+n to override the default new window to new tab, but still opens a new window
- by Firefox user 13380433, 3 years agoRated 5 out of 5I need set "F1" key to run "inspector" in firefox ( default key is Ctrl+Shift+C ) Please help me to do it
- by Firefox user 12604295, 3 years agoRated 4 out of 5The only alternative for keyconfig in Firefox Quantum so far.
- by Firefox user 13597931, 3 years agoRated 2 out of 5I've bind ctrl+q for tab close. But its still closes the firefox. This addon is useless for me. But still the lone such addon for this crap 57+
Developer response
posted 3 years agoYeah, ctrl+q (on linux and mac) and ctrl+t cannot be overriden, Firefox does not fire these key combinations.
