New site requests:

1. Visit an article on the site you want to bypass the paywall for and copy the article title.
2. Open up a new incognito window (Ctrl+Shift+N) and paste the article title into Google.
3. Click on the same article from the Google search results page. If it loads without a paywall you can submit a request to add the site, otherwise my extension cannot bypass it either.

Troubleshooting

• If it doesn't work for an article try unchecking the site in Options, save, refresh the article, then re-check the site, save and refresh the article again.
• For The Denver Post turn off uBlock.
