Shortcut and right-click menu

Two quick ways to switch RTLY on or off for the site you are on, without opening the popup.

Checked against the source on 2026-10-08, RTLY 2.0.0.

Keyboard shortcut#

Press Alt+Shift+R on a supported site. RTLY flips the setting for that site and reloads its open tabs. The shortcut does nothing on a page that is not one of the supported sites.

The key is a suggestion. Your browser keeps another extension's or its own shortcut if it clashes. You can see and change the key here:

  • Chrome: chrome://extensions/shortcuts
  • Edge: edge://extensions/shortcuts
  • Firefox: about:addons, then the gear button and Manage Extension Shortcuts

Right-click menu#

Right-click anywhere on the page, or right-click the RTLY toolbar icon, and choose the RTLY item (in English: "RTLY: Enable/disable for this site"). It does the same as the shortcut. The item is also translated into the browser languages that RTLY has a translation for.

What happens#

  1. RTLY finds which supported site the tab belongs to.
  2. If the site was on (or never set), it turns it off. If it was off, it turns it on.
  3. RTLY reloads every open tab of that site, so the change takes effect everywhere.

There is no message on screen to confirm the change. Open the popup, or look at the page, to see the result.
