Cms: Feature Request: Keyboard shortcut for 'Save and add another'

[bensomething]

Having Command + S as a shortcut is so great, but sometimes I find myself having to enter a bunch of entries manually and would love to have Shift + Command + S (or similar) mapped to Save and add another.

Plus one to infinity

This would be such a lifesaver. I'm about to enter 150 categories in manually.

Also... wouldn't it be pretty easy to implement? Maybe someone should do a PR.

@lindseydiloreto I would suggest using Feed Me on a Google Sheet or CSV instead of entering all of those manually.

I'm reading them off of a piece of paper. 😢

Alright, I've got a pretty solid JS workaround. Using the CP JS plugin*, I injected this...

$(function () {
    var redirect = '485b4c6a1848521a679e1e58ce5c90756067d76a8cc20b1ab9566a9f503e1363categories/industryTypes/new?parentId={parent.id}#';
    $('input[name="redirect"]').val(redirect);
});

When the page loads, it'll automatically update the form's hidden input field. It swaps out the default value for the already-hashed string you specify.

Now when adding new categories, you can just hit enter and immediately start typing the next one! 🎉

If you copy this code, the redirect value on your site would be different from mine. I copied this value from the "Save and Add Another" button (it's attached as the data-redirect attribute).

I plan on using this workaround briefly, then removing it as soon as I'm done. If I intended to keep it in place longer, I would do a better job of targeting the hidden redirect field. Most likely, I'd use the CP Body Classes plugin* to more accurately hone in on that specific page.

Hope others may find this helpful until a shortcut is added to core!

Just added this for Craft 3.5.

Went with Shift + Ctrl/Command + S.
