 * I installed CleanTalk on a particular site purely to blur their email address
   but it’s not working. It works on other sites that have exposed email addresses.
   Any idea why not on this one? It’s up top right on the page.
 * Thanks!

 * Hello maddogprod,
 * Please try enabling this option: WordPress Admin Page → Settings → Anti-Spam 
   by CleanTalk → Advanced settings → Use the output buffer (you can copy this name
   and find it on the settings page using Ctrl+F).
   Clear the site cache.Check by
   opening the website in incognito/private mode in your browser.
 * Did it help?

 * **UPDATE: I went into Advanced settings. Everything looked fine. Just for yucks
   I saved them again. Now it’s all working. Not sure if it might have something
   to do with the plugin update this morning but for now it’s working. Whew!**
 * I spoke too soon. This morning it’s not working in my browser or an incognito
   window in Chrome but IS in Firefox.

 * Hello [@maddogprod](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maddogprod/)
 * We’ve just rechecked the Email Encoder on our side in multiple browsers (including
   Chrome and Firefox), and everything is working correctly at the moment.
 * If you notice the issue again, please let us know and we’ll take another look
   right away.
