How to install on MacOS? #298

Hi,

where can I download an installer for MacOS?

The AppStore version shows this panel:

and clicking the button doesn't do anything, and the extension does not show up in Safari.

Clicking the button should open Safari's Addon Settings page, which is does for me. If doing this manually, you open Safari and open its settings. Then you have to tick Consent-O-Matic and click "allow on all pages"

Hi, thanks, yes, but as I said, the Consent-O-Matic does not show up in the Extensions Settings in Safari. That is why I reported this problem here.

I tried deleting the App from /Applications, and re-downloaded from the AppStore, but that didn't change anything.

Is there anything else I can delete and or reinstall?

Do you have multiple versions of safari installed by any chance? It sounds like something went wrong with the installation finding the right Safari to connect to.
Did you try to install Consent-O-Matic directly from the App Store, or did you click on the "More extensions..." button from the Safari settings? I'm not sure if that might make a difference.
Alternatively, you could try a fresh install of Safari, but that's a bit of a blunt force solution.

Try:
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain u -domain s -domain l -seed
Then reboot your Mac (it may work without rebooting)
