I see that there's an issue, but I think I'm going to have to have a visual for instructions on how to do the hotfix.

It's stopped working, and I'm seeing there are issues since Google updated something. I'm not going to attempt the hotfix though, so I'll just wait till this has been updated. I'm patient.

So, I love the extension but, since yesterday, it has stopped working for absolutely no reason... Any idea when it will be fixed?
