this is an excellent extension, it worked well in a few days ago, but it constantly pop up "Sorry, no definition found" whatever words are double clicked. did the update change something? i use firefox with proxy, please help.

Can you try once after turning off the proxy. I feel proxy is causing issue.

it's working today, i don't know what happened cause i still use the proxy. it may be my environment's issue but I'm not sure. thanks for replying, this is a gorgeous extension, i love it so much. would you like add a phonetic notation after the speaker icon if possible? there is enough space for that and would be of great help.

the problem occurs again, is there a way to show the debug info for locating the problem? i have to use the proxy cause I'm on the internal computer which can only access internet via proxy, there should no problem of the proxy cause i can post a comment here.

Can you check the logs that come in console, might be easier to debug it then @endlessbest

i can see nothing in the console when i double click a word, the popup window is shown as expected. it is also strange that in the "Network" tab, it seems there is no url request, doesn't the dictionary grab its explanation on web? did i miss something?

@endlessbest check out #26, maybe it's the same problem, since you're using a proxy

it may not be the same, i clearly remember that when the popup window says "Sorry, no definition found", i can still open the www.google.com and everything works fine besides this extension. the extension is working well right now, when i press F12 to grab its network transmission, i can only see a "get" method which download the media file(mp3), how does it get the definition of the word?

You can open the browser console, you will find the request to fetch the meaning there.
