FAQ

If the buttons don’t appear, it’s often due to caching. Follow these steps to resolve the issue:

Clear your browser cache – Press Ctrl + Shift + R (Windows) or Cmd + Shift + R (Mac) to reload without cache.
Clear your WordPress cache – If you’re using a caching plugin (like WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, or LiteSpeed Cache), clear the cache from its settings.
Purge server cache – If your hosting uses caching (e.g., Cloudflare, SiteGround, Nginx), clear the cache from your hosting control panel.
Disable caching temporarily – If the issue persists, deactivate your caching plugin temporarily and verify whether the buttons appear.
