This is not the subject of this discussion, but do you know how to disable keyboard shortcuts? Thank you in advance. [Capture d’écran 2025-06-26 à 09.09.43] [Capture d’écran 2025-06-26 à 09.09.51]

In that case, this should work: .sidebar-footer-actions-keyboard-shortcuts { display: none; }

There is no such setting in the discourse admin settings but it’s possible with some tweaks using theme component or plug-in. If you are disabling it maybe for this issue then have a look. Shortcuts messing with canvas focus Or you may try this, not sure on this. Log in as an admin to your Discourse site. Navigate to Admin > Customize > Themes. Click on the ‘Edit’ button of the theme you’d like to modify or create a new theme. Go to the ‘Javascript’ section. Paste the following code: document.addEventListener(‘keydown’, function(e) { // List of key codes or conditions to disable specific shortcuts // For example, disable ‘n’ key for new topic if (e.key === ‘n’) { e.stopImmediatePropagation(); } }); Save the changes and activate the theme. This might help, but it’s not tested.

May I ask why you want to disable it? Just curious :slightly_smiling_face:.

Simply because it’s useless. No one uses it.

Ah, so do you want to just hide the button in the sidebar or genuinely disable any keyboard shortcuts?
