# Addon Won't Show

Steps to take if your addon will not display in-game.

## <mark style="color:red;">▸ Verify Install</mark>

Verify that you've followed the instructions on the [<mark style="color:orange;">**Install**</mark>](broken://pages/-MT2xOzICG71Q3BVnmbA) page. Ensure that this includes both a good installation of rlib AND the addon itself. You can also follow the steps on the **Verify** page to ensure that both of these are functioning properly.

## <mark style="color:red;">▸ Revert Config Changes</mark>

If you have made changes to the configuration and cannot get the addon to show; revert those changes. Try installing a fresh copy of the addon without any changes to determine if the changes to the config are to blame or if you are having issues elsewhere.

## <mark style="color:red;">▸</mark> <mark style="color:red;">Use Latest Versions</mark>

Ensure that you are using the latest version of both rlib AND the addon you are trying to install. [**Gmodstore** ](https://gmodstore.com)allows developers to post multiple versions of an addon, and sometimes customers can accidentally click if downloading the addon from the Versions tab. Double-check your installed version.

## <mark style="color:red;">▸ Check For Incompatible Addons</mark>

If you are experiencing issues with this addon; ensure first that it is not conflicting with other addons. Any addons that have been installed from the Steam Workshop **MUST** be checked first. This developer cannot control the quality of code for addons distributed via the Steam Workshop and most reported situations involve a Workshop addon that is not coded properly and has not been updated in years.
