About this plugin
9), the quick command-bar that lets you run commands and move around the dashboard using keyboard shortcuts.
If it is part of your daily admin productivity routine, or if its default shortcuts get in the way, this plugin lets you disable the command palette entirely or set your own key binding so it fits the way you actually work.
This plugin is useful if you need to:
* Resolve keyboard shortcut conflicts with other software or browser extensions.
* Simplify the admin interface and command-bar for yourself or your clients.
* Prevent accidental triggering of it and its commands.
* Customize the default shortcut and key binding to better match your own workflow and navigation habits.
* Keep quick admin search available while adjusting how it behaves.
Features include:
- Disable Command Palette: A toggle to completely disable the wp-commands script, hiding the command-bar and its built-in commands from the dashboard.
- Custom Key Binding: Remap the command palette shortcut to any combination of modifier keys (Ctrl/Cmd, Alt, Shift) and a single letter, number, or punctuation key. For example, set Ctrl + Shift + P instead of the default Ctrl/Cmd + K.
- Admin Productivity Controls: Keep the commands and admin search features you rely on, while turning off the shortcuts and navigation triggers you don’t need.
All options for it, its shortcuts, and its key binding are managed from a single, user-friendly settings page, so you can adjust commands and navigation without touching any code.
Whether your goal is smoother navigation, faster admin search, or better admin productivity overall, this plugin puts things firmly under your control.
