by Link Safe, 2 years ago@Odomontois Change your User-Agent! NyTimes.com checks your User-Agent and makes you see a paywall if you reached your limit, so removing the User-Agent will be enough. If this doesn't work, rotate it.

posted 3 years agoHi. Thanks for the review. glad you are enjoying NY Times For Free. my name is Evan I made this add on. It simply sets the display to none on the paywall elements within a timeout function. you can find the code for it here https://github.com/edubz/NyTimes4FreeDeveloper response
posted 3 years agothanks for the review. I just tried it out and it seems to be working for me. On certain parts of the site it doesn't work, such as the coronavirus map. but for most articles it should work just fine.- Rated 4 out of 5by Gaz, 3 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Kaan Barmore-Genç, 3 years agoWorks for me. Looked over the code and it looks good, it simply hides the "you reached your quota" message that appears so you can keep reading the article.
- Rated 5 out of 5by huz, 3 years agoThis Extension Worked like charm, only thing is the account this extension was using is now over quota so extension is no longer working any more

posted 3 years agoHi huz. thanks for the review. I'm sorta new to the add-on game. I made this as an experiment and wasn't aware i had a handful of users until now. I'd like to make sure it works for everyone. I'm not sure what being over quota means. I did some searching, to no avail. Is the quota on my account, or on your account? If you point me in the right direction I'll do my best to sort it out.
