JW Loudoun 1 Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Web clipper has been broken for at least a day (Windows 7, Firefox 77 - I deactivated and reactivated the extension, closed and re-opened Firefox. Can access my EN account on Web and desktop app works fine. I am a very long time EN user and, it is broken) What I want until it gets fixed is a workaround which is probably simple but I guess I have never had to do: How can I insert a Web page into a note, i.e. reproduce the Clipper functionality? Thanks to anyone who can shed light on this. Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,063 Posted June 11, 2020 Level 5* Share Posted June 11, 2020 Hi. You could use a different browser and Clipoper. Or a screenshot. Or to email the page (if it supports this and you're a premium subscriber) to your Evernote email address. Or to use one of the many online website copy services that will render the page as a PDF (basically another screenshot). Or copy and paste.... Link to comment
Level 5 Dave-in-Decatur 4,006 Posted June 11, 2020 Level 5 Share Posted June 11, 2020 There seem to be several threads related to problems with Firefox in the forum dedicated to issues with the Web clipper: https://discussion.evernote.com/forum/257-web-clipper-issues/. You may get more help posting there. Link to comment
JW Loudoun 1 Posted June 11, 2020 Author Share Posted June 11, 2020 Thanks, web clipper just came back this morning, so who knows, maybe a firefox glitch or maybe one of the pages caused a problem. I will get a clipper installed into another browser as that seems to be the best workaround - will probably use Internet Explorer so as not to have to install another program. None of the other options suggested approximates the same function, of getting a complete and "live" web page with intact links into Evernote, which as far as I have used it, is the main advantage of the clipper. Doing a "save page as" into a folder is the next best thing but obviously moving stuff out of Evernote defeats the usefulness of Evernote. Thanks for the replies! 1 Link to comment
