Installed on Chrome, but it does not work. When I click to clip some web page to my zoho writer, it asks me whether I want to open a new blank document, or new from template, or import a document. I just can't clip any page?

Weird extension, depends on Zoho account, which is gmail lost, including backup codes of 2FA. Need to enlist AOL or some other email.
