Hi matt-matt1, can you enable debug mode find any relevant items in the log?
I'm not able to replicate this issue in a VM.
Set, but is the debug log kept? (Perhaps put a open button - like "Download folder."..)
Today:
Then I open the main window (from the gnome icon in the top panel). As I press the back button, only the description changes. Until I click back about 10 times then also a small preview appears and background changes as expected.
As I then click the forward button the same preview is there, the description changes and the background stays the same - this happens on each sequential click of the forward button.
I suspect there's a owner/permissions issue - a while back I made and use another user - but that shouldn't have an effect.
Quick way to do this is to monitor the system journal:
Open a console (terminal)
Type:
journalctl -f
Then try go forward and backwards through the images
Look for error messages in the journal outputs
Should look like this if it's working (and debug is switched on):
You can exit with Control-C

I did 2xback + 1xforward
Why did I get Permission denied?

Right, so the extension currently does notify if there is an access issue (we probably should). It should be readable and writable for your current username. The extension requires access to write files to that directory and GNOME itself needs to be able to access the images for the wallpaper. (This should all be the same user.)
I'd recommend chown the directory to your current username and make sure your username has read, write and exec to that directory.
Thanks that did it!
Describe the bug There are dozens of previous images and it seemed to work fine. The last image is dated about a week ago. (I manually downloaded an image from Bing and it then displayed fine after renaming it.) Suddenly it displayed the same image into the next day. Since then no new images have been downloaded into the folder. (I can set it to random and a random image displays fine - I guess from the ones already downloaded.)
Screenshots No image to show because there is any.
To Reproduce Not sure this issue exists on other systems.
