New Year Resolution Generator – Troubleshooting & Common Issues
1️⃣ Generate Button Not Working
If clicking the Generate button does nothing:
✔ Ensure JavaScript is enabled.
✔ Refresh the page using Ctrl + F5.
✔ Clear browser cache to remove old JS files.
This is the most common issue when updates are deployed.
2️⃣ Copy / Clear / Download Buttons Not Visible
✔ Your browser may be using a cached old CSS version.
✔ Try hard refresh (Ctrl + Shift + R).
✔ Ensure dark/light theme is not hiding text.
✔ Buttons now have improved visibility with strong contrast.
3️⃣ Resolution Text Not Appearing After Generating
✔ Ensure the output container has correct ID (e.g., resolutionOutput).
✔ Verify JavaScript updates the innerText or innerHTML properly.
✔ Check for console errors (F12 → Console).
4️⃣ Copy to Clipboard Not Working
✔ Clipboard API requires HTTPS (your site already uses it).
✔ Ensure the resolution text exists before copying.
✔ Safari users may need to tap first to enable clipboard permissions.
5️⃣ Download Button Creates Empty File
✔ Make sure the text area is not empty.
✔ Ensure the Blob creation and object URL generation is correct.
✔ Some browsers block multiple rapid downloads—try once slowly.
6️⃣ Page Looks Broken on Mobile
✔ Ensure responsive CSS is applied (Bootstrap 5).
✔ Check if the content container width is correct.
✔ Verify no large fixed-width elements are overflowing the screen.
7️⃣ Results Look Repeated or Not Random
✔ Clear LocalStorage if caching is used.
✔ Ensure your array of resolutions is large and diverse.
✔ Use Math.floor(Math.random() * list.length) for randomness.
8️⃣ Slow Performance on Older Devices
✔ Too many DOM updates at once can slow rendering.
✔ Avoid heavy animations or large image files.
✔ Use lightweight JS for generating resolutions.
