I've been through the shortcuts and I don't see a way to go through each page without having to click on the arrow icons in the lower left corner of the Create page. It would sure be a time-saver if we could use maybe command-left & right arrows to move through the pages in a single file. After doing a 12-page website in the last few days, with a lot of back and forth checking of this and that, and copying and pasting, I really, REALLY wanted shortcut.

Hey - did you know that you can set up your own COMMAND KEYS for any app or all apps?

System Preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse, "Keyboard Shortcuts"

Click "+", choose "Create" from popup and Menu Title "Next"
(set Next to whatever you like!)

Click "+", choose "Create" from popup and Menu Title "Previous"
(set Previous to whatever you like!)

When you relaunch Create, voila! You've added new menu shortcuts...

Yes, I do know that, and I have added a few things already, but you can't add a keystroke for something that is not already in the menus, and there is no "next" or "previous" or anything in the menus to have you move to the next page (previous page).

Very nice! I've got my keystrokes added. This, combined with the command keys for adding, inserting and duplicating pages that you added a couple of months ago, really lets you move quickly through a file. My next goal is to find some way to preview .php pages without having to load them to the server.

Thank you for this Christmas present.

Oh - and by the way, to move through pages using arrow keys:

(On desktop keyboard)

Page Up = previous page
Page Down = next page
Home = first page
End = last page

(On a laptop):
Function (FN) - Up arrow = previous page
Function (FN) - Down arrow = next page
Function (FN) - Left arrow = first page
Function (FN) - Right arrow = last page
