If you're experiencing issues with the Authory Browser Extension, try these common troubleshooting steps first:

1. The extension icon isn’t appearing

  • Ensure the extension is installed and enabled in your browser’s settings.

  • Restart your browser after installation.

  • Check if the extension icon is pinned or accessible in your browser toolbar.

2. Content added isn’t appearing on your Authory portfolio

  • Give it a moment; occasionally, newly added items may take a short time to sync.

  • Make sure the content item you added is in a collection that is on your portfolio.

3. Issues with paywalled content

  • Confirm you are fully logged into the site hosting the paywalled content.

  • Ensure you have access and the paywall isn't blocking the content when you try adding it.

4. Extension conflicts or errors

  • Disable other extensions temporarily to see if there is a conflict.

  • Try clearing your browser cache and cookies.

  • Ensure your browser is updated to the latest version.

5. General troubleshooting steps

  • Restart your browser or try a different browser temporarily to confirm if it's a browser-specific issue.

  • Uninstall and reinstall the Authory Browser Extension.
