More Keyboard Shortcut Support

Idea 1

in Feature request · Seller 48 ·

Building a SEO-focused, UX/UI-polished store in GemPages v7 requires a lot of small repetitive actions (links, styling headings, consistency across sections). More shortcuts would significantly reduce friction, speed up production, and help keep designs consistent. Current pain points: - Creating hyperlinks in text is mouse-heavy: - Today: highlight text → click the chain/link icon → paste URL → confirm. - Request: support the industry-standard shortcut Ctrl/Cmd + K to “Insert/Edit Link” in the inline text editor. - Repeating styling across similar elements takes too many clicks: - Example: One row with 4 columns, each column has a Heading. I want to apply the same typography (size/weight/spacing) to all 4 headings quickly. - Global Styles is great for base typography, but in real pages we still need quick “apply same style here too” workflows. - Request: add a keyboard shortcut for “Copy Style” to match the existing “Paste Style” workflow. Suggested: Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + C = Copy Style Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + V = Paste Style (already exists) Requested features (v7 editor): A) Ctrl/Cmd + K → Insert/Edit Link for selected text in inline editor - Same behavior as common editors: if text is selected → opens link modal; if cursor is inside an existing link → edit link. B) Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + C → Copy Style (for the selected element) - Complements the existing Paste Style shortcut and reduces repetitive context-menu clicks. Optional (nice-to-have): C) Shortcut/Hotkey cheat sheet in editor + ability to customize shortcuts in Preferences. How this improves UX/UI + SEO workflows: - Faster page building and iteration (less time clicking, more time improving content and layout). - Encourages better internal linking practices (quickly adding links), which helps site structure and SEO. - Improves design consistency (typography & spacing), reducing visual “noise” across the site. - Brings GemPages in line with common editor conventions (Ctrl/Cmd+K for links is widely used). Thank you! Happy to provide a short screen recording of the current workflow + how the shortcut would be used.
