Keyboard shortcuts not working on published extension, but working when loading unpacked developer extension?


I created keyboard shortcuts in my extension that worked while I was testing, but don't work when I install my published version. They are:

Default: Ctrl+Shift+A, Ctrl+Shift+S Mac: MacCtrl + D, MacCtrl + S

Are these overriding something that they shouldn't be? Based on the documentation (https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/reference/commands/) these keyboard shortcuts should work.


Solution

  • After a few days I uninstalled and reinstalled the extension, and then the keyboard shortcuts began to work. If anyone else is having this problem and they just recently published their extension, wait a few days and that may solve the problem.
