The list won't load

If the Proxy list shows an empty page, a spinner that never finishes, or an error, old saved data from a previous visit is the most common cause. The site normally detects this and resets its own data automatically, or shows a Reset saved data & reload button. If that didn't work, follow the steps below.

Quick fixes

  1. Open the list's Settings and click Reset saved data (if the page loads far enough to show it).
  2. Reload using the proxy's own reload button, not only the browser's.
  3. Open the list in a private window (Ctrl+Shift+N in Chrome/Edge, Ctrl+Shift+P in Firefox, ⌘+Shift+N in Safari). If it works there, the problem is saved data, and the steps below will fix your normal window.
Using the list through a web proxy? Clear the data for the proxy's address (the one in your browser's address bar, for example proxy.example.com), not for github.io. Proxies keep each site's saved data under their own address. Clearing it also resets that proxy's own settings (such as its chosen transport or history).
