Soldering Dactyl Manuform
Handedness? Not sure what do you mean by that. I'm using the config.qmk.fm website for the key configuration

mouse controls on qmk
I'm using https://config.qmk.fm/ to create a firmware for Iris rev.7 including mouse keys, and then use QMK toolbox on MacOs to flash the firmware, but while everything else works in all layers, the mouse keys do not move the cursor at all. Any ideas?

French layout on a preonic
How can I use https://config.qmk.fm/ to map certain specific keys such as € or @, that are not direct or available in the framework ?

Could use a bit of help with a layer not functioning as expected

Confused about qmk flashing layouts to crkbd
I didn't want to really start another thread because the question I have is so similar I think. I was somehow able to use config.qmk.fm to map a really generic colemak-dh keymap, I read the qmk noob section so I looked up how to use github/git completely lost, I have the Corne 3x6 I didn't build it I purchased it secondhand so Ive been doing some research on ergonomic mapping Miryoku generally seems to be a solid choice

charybdis prebuild or moonlander?
I'd recommend you jump on QMK configurator, select the Charybdis of desired size, and start making your layers 😉

DZ60 Keyboard not Working After Flashing
My keyboard was working fine prior to flashing. I have a solderable dz60 (ATMEGA32U4). I tried to flash it with firmware downloaded from config.qmk.fm (selected dz60 as keyboard). It said successful on qmk toolbox, but my caps lock light is stuck on and no button presses work. The esc + plugin option to reset stopped working, so I had to take the pcb out to press the reset button. Still not working after flashing with default firmware downloaded from config.qmk.fm. I tried flashing it with dz60 via firmware, and it gets recognized in via now, but still not working. After hours of troubleshooting of it not working, I flashed it with dz60rgb_v2 just to see what happens, and then very few of the keys work after a few presses (but they're mismapped), and the caps lock light goes off. I've tried the keyboard on different devices, and on both of them it gets recognized as a keyboard, but the caps lock light is still stuck on and no presses register.

Dactyl Manuform with Amoeba King PCBs -- Keypresses not detected
Let's suppose that the issue is the diode orientation. I'm a total QMK newbie -- how could I swap between ROW2COL and COL2ROW at the firmware level? On the QMK Github I see instructions for modifying the appropriate headers. But when I generate my config from config.qmk.fm I only get a single .hex file. Thanks again!

Can Corne keymap be converted for use with Piantor keyboard?
Probably the easiest way to do it by clicking buttons is to use config.qmk.fm.

I'm so confused on oryx vs qmk
For non-ez keyboards, a similar tool is the QMK Configurator. See this documentation page or the video tutorial for an overview.

QMK Inland MK47 Guide
Flashing custom firmware - the current version QMK tool off the website won't work. You'll most likely get a "USB device connected (NO DRIVER): WB Device in DFU Mode " and not be able to flash anything. You will need the beta version that supports WB32 flashing utility. I grabbed mine from the GMMK guide QMK tool from GMMK

Sense 75 red underglow caps lock indicator
You first have to download QMK toolbox https://github.com/qmk/qmk_toolbox/releases/download/0.2.2/qmk_toolbox.exe. Once downloaded, download this bin file https://github.com/GHv4/Sense75-CAPSLOCK-UNDERGLOW/blob/main/sense75-CAPSLOCK%20UNDERGLOW.bin. Open the QMK toolbox exe file, then hit the open button. Locate the .bin file. Hold Right FN+BACKSPACE until it pops up in QMK Toolbox. Hit flash and wait for it to finish flashing. Via and Vial compatible. YOU'RE WELCOME FRIENDS!!

Can't figure out how to configure Megalodon Triple-Knob Macro Pad
I got things working by using the https://github.com/qmk/qmk_toolbox project, and the firmware file you linked. As you said, my pad now works with Vial, and has 12 layers. Though the layer selector still only traverses between layers 0 through 3.

How to work on hex file from keyboard maker?
- QMK MSYS: you'll need it for many things, for compiling your firmware file and for flashing, especially if flashing with QMK Toolbox isn't permitted in firmware settings (in this case QMK Toolbox just won't recognize your keyboard);

I have a Mac/Win toggle, but the flashing process always flashes Mac. Am i supposed to be able to choose which one I flash in the software? Also my volume knob doesn't work after flashing.
I am currently using the QMK online configurator tool to do the compilation and download the resulting .bin file, and then the QMK Toolbox to flash it onto the keyboard.

Finally got my CSTC75 built
Check out this site: http://kpchn.com/s/PoHJ. I found it from the AliExpress page and it leads to all the VIA/VIAL configs for the KPRepublic boards. Go into CSTC75 and you'll see a .hex file, that's the firmware. You should be able to use the QMK toolbox: https://github.com/qmk/qmk_toolbox to flash the firmware.

Did I brick my microcontrollers (Sea Picro RP2040) somehow? The bootloader is in ROM, so shouldn't be possible?
When I first plugged them in, my Mac (running 13.1 Ventura) recognized them as a USB storage device. I was trying to use the QMK toolbox to flash the firmware onto them, not realizing that I needed to drag and drop a .uf2 file instead of trying to flash a .hex file.
