    Hi there,

    I have updated all plugins, themes, disabled plugins one by one to see if they are clashing but unfortunately it still doesn’t work. Any other ideas as to how we can make this work please?

    Thank you

    Sorry – I realised it automatically added “admin” as a hashtag which is weird. I have removed and now working. Thank you!
