Error messages and their meaning
These are the most common error messages that you might encounter while using the chrome extension.
User validation failed
The login credentials supplied by this extension did not match this shop’s login credentials. Please make sure that your extension is activated for the shop you are currently logged in.
The user validation error shows up if the authentication of your extension fails. This means that the supplied shop domain or access token credentials are incorrect.
To fix this user validation issue you need to supply new valid credentials to the extension by activating it in the Opinew dashboard.
Insufficient import quota
Reviews import failed due to insufficient import quota. You don’t have enough review import quota remaining. If you want to import more reviews, consider upgrading your Opinew subscription plan.
The insufficient import quota error will show if you try to import more reviews than your current review quota allows. In order to remove this error message and successfully import the reviews you need to increase your review quota by deleting older reviews to make space for the new ones or by upgrading your Opinew subscription plan to a higher tier.
If you upgrade to the Ultra subscription plan you will have an unlimited review quota and don’t need to worry about this error again.
Invalid product
The product you are trying to import either does not exist or is already linked to a different url. Please make sure that this product exists in your store and that no other reviews are linked to it and try again.

Refresh the current page

Make sure that your browser has internet access
