Observances

  • Check the store page for your presence. They only work from certain URL's.
    • EG: Soundcloud will only work if the page listed in the presence store is from "Soundcloud.com" You cannot use other hosts!
  • Fully check your Web Extension > Manage page and ensure it is set up to work.
    • EG: "Allow this extension to read and change all your data on websites you visit > On Specific Sites" "https://www.youtube.com/"
    • Note: An "*"/Asterisk is a wildcard value, meaning any page from that host can be accessed.
  • After any changes are made, it's always a good idea to close your web browser and Discord to reload.
