SharePoint Masters

Here’s the list of keyboard shortcuts – for the default ‘team site’ home page : you have to use ALT + (for example) to select the specific item – and then ENTER to do the ‘click’. / – Site Actions Menu S – Search this site – can just start typing in the Search box W – Security (login) dropdown W – Shared Documents – can tab between these items – ie. ALT+W twice X – Skip to main content (hidden link) Y – Skip Ribbon Commands 1 – Home (hyperlink) 6 – Help – the little blue question mark in top right of screen 3 – View All Site Content As mentioned, much of the need for shortcut keys is when you haven’t got a mouse – but I’m sure it could be useful for some folk – I like the ALT+3, ENTER – to go to ‘View All Site Content’ – might have to try & use that !
