You need to activate/pin it. To the right of the address bar, there is a row of icons. One of those looks like a little puzzle piece. It should open a little popup with a list of your extensions. To the side of each, there is a pin symbol. Activate the one of GoUniverse. Then its icon (resembling a moon sickle) should appear in the symbol row. Clicking it should take you to the login form.
A good system naturally covers all corner cases without further effort.

There's no extension icon showing up at the top right and I have no way to access any new KGS interface via Chrome or going to gokgs.com. How do I even start up this client? :scratch:
Hello. Did you manage to run the extension?
If the problem still exists. Go to the extensions page chrome://extensions/ and check if the extension is enabled.
If everything is OK, then in the drop-down list of all extensions you will see GoUniverse

I think there's something weird going on with the extension or my browser. I can see the moon icon, but only when in the process of installing or removing the extension. Once installed, GoUniverse promptly removes itself from the row of extension icons and I can't find any way to interact with it. When checking chrome://extensions/, it's listed there and active. Turning the on/off switch doesn't do anything. Might be an issue on my end or perhaps a conflict with another extension?

Hello,

First of all, thanks for this very good kgs client.
Yet, I found 2 bugs:

- It is often (but not always) impossible to load a game to a room which has accentuated characters.
Examples: Go go gadgéto moyo, Salle française.
The game fails to load: it is only an empty window. After it, the app is unresponsive so the only solution is to close it and reopen it.

- Someone in the censor list can still open a private chat.

The first bug is particularly painful.

Thanks Kosmonavt.
