    When I type the letter N on my keyboard, the comment section opens on the top admin tool bar next to where it says “Howdy (name)”. Has anyone seen this before? Is there a fix?

    Thanks

  • Hello there!

    Are you working on the Gutenberg or Block builder when this happens? I checked the available WordPress shortcuts but didn’t find one for the “N” key. Please check the link below.

    It will help if you can provide more info about when or where this happens, then maybe we’ll know what triggers it. Disabling the plugins temporarily might also help.

    Best Regards,

    Thank you for the reply Ismael! I typically work with the classic editor. I’m just starting a new site after not working on one for a few years, so it’s what I’m used to.

    It happens whether I am on the dashboard or on the actual page. It’s not live yet, so I can’t view it without being logged in. The only time it does not happen, is if i am actually typing in the backend in a textbox. If I’m filling out a form on the site itself, the N issue still happens.

    I too didn’t see any kind of shortcuts using N. I disabled comment shortcuts as well. I also, had my business partner log in on his computer, and it happens there as well.

    Thanks again,
    Chris

    I’m still not sure what initially caused the issue, but I just removed the comment icon in the top admin bar by adding the following to functions.php:

    function remove_comments(){
            global $wp_admin_bar;
            $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('comments');
    }
    add_action( 'wp_before_admin_bar_render', 'remove_comments' );

    That seemed to solve the issue.
