A specific keyboard shortcut trigger with advanced condition stopped working from the last one or two version (including alpha). It does not work/not triggered unless the "Advanced Conditions..." window is opened. If I remove the conditions - still the same. Here's the config: ![image](https://community.folivora.ai/uploads/default/original/3X/8/4/848c07ed41608b02fe02dcf9ae317e6f9382ee3d.jpeg) This was one of the first triggers I've setup and it was working till now, I have not changed anything related to it. Version: 5.250 (2025030306) ---

mhh there hasn't been a change in this area for some time (especially not in the last few alphas). Does the shortcut show up in recently used? ---

No, that's why I've mentioned "It does not work/not triggered". ---

Is that shortcut defined globally or in some CAG / App Specific? ---

Could you try setting up some basic action that just shows a hud with that variable? ![image](https://community.folivora.ai/uploads/default/original/3X/0/b/0bc7e548ff0836f3fda5f029f27c1f90970c6b70.jpeg) It is a very fundamental variable that is used everywhere in BTT, so it should break almost everything if it was wrong. Maybe some script does override the variable? ---

I think I found the issue, the same trigger was configured in a CAG, however it is disabled. I think the explanation is here - [Shortcuts only works if created under specific app not under "For All Apps" - #2 by Andreas\_Hegenberg](https://community.folivora.ai/t/shortcuts-only-works-if-created-under-specific-app-not-under-for-all-apps/40358/2) Please excuse me for this, I forgot that I've disabled this shortcut in that specific CAG which resulted in that behavior. ---

Ah yes, that makes sense! Thanks for the update! ---

Do you think it is worth including something like a WARN message or similar to notify the user that this shortcut is configured somewhere else, no matter that it is disabled etc.? ---

Most of my shortcuts are configured many times so I would always have warning messages everywhere. Maybe once I get to implement a real search I could add something like "find all places where this shortcut is configured". One thing I will add soon is a better warning when disabling shortcuts in a specific app or CAG. ---

@xidiot Unfortunately, I often have this problem. If you test a lot and want to keep these tests, you disable them and forget about them. 🙂 I have recently moved all tests to a “test preset” that can be activated or deactivated. It's not ideal, but it's better. 🙂 ---

Good idea, thanks @Frank1
