Junior Manzo (ID: 0000009e210b650d) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 12/14/2023 I keep hearing about how others love this extension, but not matter how hard I try this doesn't seem to work for me. I hit pov turn on, which means its on and nothing changed. I input the name on the left, and then changed it to the name I wanted on the right. Literally nothing changed. Its all still the same as it was before. Ugh, does anyone have any tips that could help me out?

Rachel Sanchez (ID: 000000f486cf83d9) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/19/2023 This works great and is super easy to use! In case anyone runs into the same struggle I had when first using it, if you already have a story open after downloading the extension, make sure to refresh the page and then the "POV Replacer" button should show up at the top of the story. I was under the impression that I had to somehow click the actual extension in the bar, so I was confused for a bit until I thought to refresh haha! The only slight issue I seem to notice is (which isn't even necessarily the extension's fault) some authors tend to write "Y/N" instead of just "Y/N", so when replacing "Y/N" with my name, it will still show up in brackets like so, Name. Although not the worst thing ever I still wanted to see if I could have only my name to show up. I thought I could just write "Y/N" in the extension instead of "Y/N" as I had originally, but it ending up replacing all of the "Y" and "N"s in the story with my name. I assume this is probably just a coding language issue and there' may not be a way to fix it (although I'm not super familiar with coding so I could be wrong) but just thought I'd add that in. Overall a great extension :)
