New site requests:

  1. Visit an article on the site you want to bypass the paywall for and copy the article title.
  2. Open up a new Private window (Ctrl+Shift+P) and paste the article title into Google.
  3. Click on the same article from the Google search results page. If it loads without a paywall you can submit a request to add the site, otherwise my extension cannot bypass it either.

Troubleshooting

  • This add-on works best alongside uBlock Origin.
  • For The Denver Post turn off uBlock.
  • If a site doesn't work try turning off uBlock and refreshing.
