New Mapping for 'k' Shortcut
Asked by Tyler Etters:

*This question is in reference to Atlassian Documentation: [View Page Information](https://confluence.atlassian.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=724765076)*

Is the 'k' shortcut to bring up the modal no longer functional? It isn't working for us anymore. It takes us to this page info instead. We miss the modal.

body: On my Cloud instance, pressing 'k' on a page in view mode brings up a '**Link to this page'** dialog box (with link and tiny link URLs that can be copied).

Is that the one you expect?

In Cloud, you can [check which keyboard shortcuts](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/keyboard-shortcuts-139456.html) are available by pressing **Shift** +**?**when viewing a page.

body: Hmmm. If you manually choose the "Link to this Page..." option from the actions menu (i.e. the three dots), does it bring up the correct dialog?

If it does, I assume it still says "Shortcut tip: Pressing **k** also opens this dialog box" at the bottom?

Have you tried using a different browser and/or clearing your browser cache to see if that makes a difference?

Do shortcuts other than **k** and **Shift** +**?** work?


author: Tyler Etters
body: Manually choosing "..." \> "Link to this Page..." does not bring up the correct dialog. It brings me to the same Page Information page.

I get the same results with an Incognito window, a different browser (Safari), and with the cache cleared or disabled.

Other keyboard shortcuts work as expected.


author: Sam Hall
body: Strange. Do you have any add-ons installed which might be overriding/interfering?

Might be worth raising a support ticket with Atlassian on this one here: <https://support.atlassian.com/servicedesk/customer/portal/23>


author: Tyler Etters
body: Thanks for all your help, Sam! I opened a ticket.
