Cmd + click not working to jump to function definition in Cursor

I just got cursor but for some reason cmd+click is not jumping to function definition. This has been a really annoying issue that’s prevented me from using cursor over vscode. Can you help to solve this?

Hey, sorry you are struggling with this! Which language are you coding with in your project?

The CTRL+Click functionality is powered by the language-specific extension that works for your project, so the reasons for it not working would be different for each language.

I’m using python, should I download some extension manually? What could be the issue?

Same issue with JS/TS. Does not work at all. I’ve tried disabling all extensions and enabling again. I have the same extensions installed on VS Code and no problem there.

In case anyone else hits this issue, this is how I fixed it:

  1. Open the cmd pallete (cmp + shift + p)
  2. Type in “Install Extensions” and open the Extensions panel
  3. Search for the word “Python” and find the extension with 4M+ downloads
  4. Click “Uninstall” → “Restart Extensions” → “Install”
  5. Profit
