I use the editor in Firefox but like to preview and debug in chrome to keep FF as clean as possible but as of late whenever I append the debug mode parameters, the page refreshes back to regular version-test. No matter who I use to log in to the app. Anyone else having this issue? ---

It works just fine for me. Don’t know what could be wrong. Any chance you had a URL redirect because of, say, SSL or something like that which is changing the URL before it hits Bubble? ---

No, that has always been the case and it worked fine. Perhaps I need to clear cache although IE and Edge display the same behaviour. ---

Strange. I’d try a few other things and if you can’t get it then submit it as a bug. Perhaps the Bubble team has seen this before and knows the solution. ---

Chrome does this to me as well. I have not figured out a trigger yet. Sorta seems to happen when I have developer tools open and reload the page. Sometimes just closing the window and reopening will fix it, sometimes not. ---

Make sure you’re logged in with bubble in chrome. Only the application editors can use the debugger ---

Oh yes, totally forgot about that. Couple weeks back something happened that made me have to log back into Bubble. Completely forgot that I was logged into Chrome all this time. Thanks. ---

Addendum: It also won’t work if you have a tracker blocker turned on (Ghostery in my case), even if you’re logged in to the editor in the same browser. ---

Hi @vincent56 , I am having the same issue than you had… But Emmanuel’s fix doesn’t work for me. Do you have any idea why ? Thanks ---

Google chrome never shows me the debugger. It fixed it for me once I used Firefox and logged in to my Bubble account and then went to preview. ---

@cdorozco16 Chrome should show debugger, try safe mode by adding parameters ‘&bubble\_safe\_mode=true&bubble\_no\_third\_party\_plugin=true’ after ‘debug\_mode=true’ ---

I have the same issue with a new MAC. debug\_mode works fine on same project on my other computer. The parameter debug\_mode is actively removed from the URL line once. Smells like a 🐛 🦟 🪲 Safari 13.0.4 macOS Catalina 10.15.2 No popup blocker set ---

Resolved after logging **out** of Bubble and then logging back **in** again.
