Fixed shortcuts for fallback searches?

[Cykelero]

I have a few different fallback searches that I use very often. Is it possible to assign them fixed shortcuts?

 

Alfred does automatically assign shortcuts to every result, which is super handy. However, the shortcuts for fallback searches will be different, depending on whether or not Alfred returns results, since the shortcuts are based on the result position.

 

For instance, while my Google Search shortcut is usually ⌘4, it shifts to ⌘5 when I search for “nova”, which matches an app on my Mac:

 

 

I'd really like these fallback searches to always have the same shortcut; and, I basically never use the positional shortcuts for anything else than default searches.

Is that possible? Alfred support seems to say that it isn't, not without some trickery.

@Cykelero If you go to Alfred's Advanced preferences, on the right side, you'll see the Action Modifier for the numbers, and below, three dropdowns for Ctrl + return, etc...

 

You can set one of these three to "Search with default web search" so that you can then use Ctrl + Return, for example, on any result in Alfred to bypass any of the results and go straight to your default web search.

Thanks for the reply! That's handy.

What I'd really like however, is to have such a direct shortcut for each of the four fallback searches. I happen to use them all quite often!
