A Note About Permissions: This extension uses an "access all sites" permission. The purpose of this permission is to allow publishers to add support for their own sites, in addition to the sites that are supported natively. It will be used to add the 'save' button to supported sites, and to fetch story content from those sites. It will not be used for anything else, and will never access or modify any site other than fiction sites that are supported for ebook conversion by the extension.

I love using this extension and have never had any problems with it. However when I was on my extension page to get rid of another extension today, I saw the following message in reference to Ficlab: "This extension may soon no longer be supported because it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions." What's happened? Will you be releasing an updated version?

It worked great until I started getting this message: "Error: TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'textContent')" whenever I tried saving a story. Any recommendations on how to fix?
