## FAQ / Troubleshooting

### Q: Why don't Slinks work for me? I only see a link that redirects me to the website.

A: If Slinks aren't displaying properly and you're only seeing a link that redirects to the website, it's likely due to cookie settings on X. To resolve this:

1. Ensure you're accepting all cookies from X.
2. If you're using Chrome or Arc browser, check your cookie settings for X.
3. Try clearing your browser cache and cookies, then reload the page.

Remember, Slinks rely on X's ability to load and display Twitter Cards. Without the proper cookie permissions, X may not be able to render the embedded content correctly.

### Q: How do I accept all cookies from X?

A: To accept all cookies from X:

1. Go to X.com
2. Look for a cookie consent banner or popup
3. Choose "Accept All Cookies" or a similar option
4. If you don't see a banner, check your browser settings or X account settings for cookie preferences

After accepting cookies, try viewing the Slink again. It should now display properly as an embedded card in the tweet.

If you're still experiencing issues after following these steps, please ensure your browser is up to date and try disabling any ad-blockers or privacy extensions that might interfere with X's functionality.
