If you have recently installed Https Everywhere plug-in you may have issues signing-in and/or viewing your paper (blank pages / error mesage: "Try again in a few minutes....").

Below is a guide on how to disable Https Everywhere for Firefox and Chrome. Once you have disabled the plug-in, refresh your browser to see if the issue has been resolved. 

 

Here is a How To for Firefox:
1. Go to Paper.li or a paper's page
2. Click on "Tools" in your browser view
3. Search for HttpsEverywhere and right-mouse-click it
4. Enable/Disable it for Paper.li (a red x should appear).

 

Restart your browser and you should be able to log-in Paper.li and to view your paper properly again.

 

For PC:

For Mac:

For Chrome:

Enter this address in the URL bar: chrome://chrome/extensions/

If you have uploaded HttpsEverywhere, you will see this message:

Check if the "Enable" box is activated and if so, deactivate it. Then restart your browser and you will be able to view and use Paper.li again properly.
