Firefox extension sticks on "fetching images" again and again about epub-press-clients

Hi @MarjaE2 ,

Is this happening for all pages? Or just specific ones?
Also - have you walked through the debugging instructions? That would also be helpful for determining what is happening on your machine.

Thanks!

Only certain pages. It may be because pages reference images elsewhere, and those images are no longer available.

The debugging instructions rely on chrome.

Do you have links for any such pages? Could be that the service is failing to fetch the image and dying in which case should figure out how to make it more robust.

There's definitely situations where EpubPress won't be able to fetch the image (such as if you're logged into a site that's behind a paywall).
