Dumb question about writing posts in Wordpress

John J. Boyer
I'm just getting started with Wordpress. When I write a post the title is no problem. However, when I write the body I
can't terminate the editor and move on to the next field. What is the keystroke to terminate the editor? I can't find that anywhere. Probably that's because it's obvious to the sighted, but it should have been explained. Thanks, John -- John J.

How did you find out which keystrokes to use? i have searched Wordpress.org extensively and didn't find a hint.

You're probably on the focus mode. Just get off of it and press tab some times, now you should be able to continue with your post without problems. Hth Cheers, Marcio Em 30/10/2018 15:02, John J. Boyer escreveu:

browse mode. There doesn't seem to be a NVDA key for that. The post body is an editor. There must be a special ctrl or alt keystroke to terminate it. John

That is a very good question. I hope it is answered by people with experience in both Wordpress and Facebook.

Meanwhile, I still can't terminate the editor for the body of posts on wordpress. There must be people on this list who are doing that successfully, not just guessing. John

Kevin,

I think Wordpress and Facebook aren't the same thing. See, Wordpress is a blog manager platform, whereas Facebook is a social network. But of course we can post everything we want both using Wordpress and Facebook, although I believe there's a different purpose for each one. Cheers, Marcio Em 30/10/2018 22:45, Kevin escreveu:

John, truthfully, pressing tab just once for me tabs away from the

WordPress visual editor. You do need to press NVDA+space to exit browse mode. As someone who has done WordPress for 8 years, as a site owner myself, a hosting provider for primarily WordPress sites, & a holder of a WordPress Support forum Contributor badge, I'm scarcely "just guessing". Obviously I don't know what your setup is, ie, if it's a virtual box where keystrokes may not work as expected, etc, but tab does work. You may wish to try shift-tabbing back to the title box & again, you'll find it necessary to press NVDA+space.

Wordpress is a CMS or content management service. Blogs and websites are made using this as I don't think you want to write a million lines of html code. Facebook is just a social network but wordpress can use plugins to link posts from facebook and or twitter and can enable users to share to facebook and or twitter or tumbler or what not. Go to wordpress.org and read more about what it is and how it can be used.

John, are you using the new Wordpress editor? That has a nasty toolbar that's a female dog to get out of. Try pressing Shift plus Tab until you eventually reach the title, then Space plus NVDA to get back into browse mode, and you should be goode to go. I hope that helps.
