Description
I'm not particularly active on dA anymore as work and general life is devouring my time, but I check in with dA from time to time to look through the many wonderful pieces of art that can be found.

By now after having joined many groups, etc. I have more than 10000 deviations waiting in my inbox. When viewing deviation stacks I can click the "Remove from Messages" button to go to the next one. This is a good feature, but I don't like having to scroll to find it in order to move to the next one.

So I thought I'd share a tip with all of you on how to set up keyboard shortcuts to help routine tasks around dA (or any other web-page for that matter).

I have come across this plugin for Google Chrome called "Shortcut Manager" which allows you to set up keyboard shortcuts to either open web pages or to execute custom JavaScript. What I did was simply to simulate the click of the "Remove from Messages" when I press the "]" button.

The reason for the "]" button is just for convenience as I use the same key when archiving read emails within GMail. You can set this to whatever you want.

Using a keyboard shortcut to skip to next deviation works really well and is quite a time saver. This is just a single shortcut of course, but you could easily add a shortcut to add a deviation to favourites or to navigate around dA!

The plugin can be found at:

chrome.google.com/webstore/det…

and how I set it up can be seen in the image above.

Alternative plugin (the Shortcut Manager looks to have been removed from the Chrome Store):
chrome.google.com/webstore/det…

Some shortcut suggestions:

Add to favourites:
javascript:$('#gmi -ResourceViewFavouriteButton').click();

Remove from messages
javascript:$('#gmi -ResourceViewMessageButton > .remove-message-button').click();

Select all (within deviation stack)
return $($('#gmi -ResourceStream').closest('div.mczone')[0]).data('pagedview').click('selectall');

Remove all (within deviation stack)
return $($('#gmi -ResourceStream').closest('div.mczone')[0]).data('pagedview').click('remove')

Select and remove all (within deviation stack)
$($('#gmi -ResourceStream').closest('div.mczone')[0]).data('pagedview').click('selectall');
return $($('#gmi -ResourceStream').closest('div.mczone')[0]).data('pagedview').click('remove')

I hope this is useful for someone.

If you have any questions or if you know how to do this for other browsers let me know.
