Works Great if site supports what it needs

First, this plugin works great. Thank you!! At first it hung on “Initializing” on my staging site and would go no further. I found the link to the free online version at [ link removed ]. It gave me the error message “The WordPress site has an error in its REST API data. [no_json]”. So I used that online version on the public version of my site and it worked perfectly! Two suggestions: (1) put the error code so that it shows when used within WordPress, and (2) put a Cancel button on the Print box. Thanks again!

@marthalindeman Thanks for the review but please keep it to your words here only. No links or links to images. That’s not permitted in reviews and I have removed yours.

Thanks so much for the review and feedback @marthalindeman !
It sounds like we should have a separate support thread regarding the issue you encountered, because I’d like to know which site was having the issue so I can investigate the problem further.

And thanks for the tips. The plugin should show an error message already so I’d like to investigate why it wasn’t.
And the cancel button sounds like an easy addition.

@jdembowski thanks for moderating. I keep on stumbling across rules I wasn’t aware of like this one. I’ve read over the support forum guidelines but didn’t notice the rule you’re taking about (unless you categorize adding a link as “spamming”, which I wouldn’t, so long as it’s relevant.)

FYI @marthalindeman I created a GitHub issue to address it (I’d link to it but am now unsure if that’s permitted! 😣)

@mnelson4 The guidelines aren’t rules. Neither is the FAQ. People game rules and that’s always not good.

Try the FAQ.

Particularly this part.

Yes, that was driven by people abusing the reviews.

@mnelson4 Reviews should not be used for support topics.

If anyone has a question about an issue then they can start a support topic.

That part of this conversation can happen there. I am closing this review from further comments.
