Running a smooth dropshipping business relies on reliable tools, and the Zopi Chrome extension is one of the most important. This extension helps automate importing products from AliExpress or Temu directly into your Shopify or WooCommerce store. However, like any tool, users may sometimes face issues.
If you’re experiencing problems with the Zopi extension, don’t worry—this article will walk you through common Zopi extension issues and exactly how to fix them. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced dropshipper, you’ll find actionable tips and step-by-step instructions to get your extension working again.
Why does Zopi extension not work?
The Zopi extension is designed to streamline product importation and order fulfillment for Shopify and WooCommerce users. Here are the main reasons why the extension may not function properly:
- Browser Compatibility Issues: Zopi only works with Google Chrome and on PC/Desktop. Extensions may not behave correctly on other browsers and on mobile.
- Outdated Extension Version: An old version may conflict with updated site structures on AliExpress or Temu.
- Incorrect Login Flow: Not being logged into both Zopi and the supplier site can prevent the extension from activating.
- Disabled Permissions: If Chrome permissions are restricted, the extension can’t access the necessary data.
- Conflicting Extensions: Other Chrome extensions can interfere with how Zopi operates on supplier websites.
What Are the Common Issues with the Zopi Extension?
Zopi users commonly report the following problems. These can disrupt daily operations, especially during busy order fulfillment times:
- Extension not showing on AliExpress/Temu pages
- “Please login to Zopi” errors even when logged in
- Import button not appearing
- Product data not syncing correctly
- Cannot auto-fill customer data during checkout
These problems waste time and can delay your order processing or lead to incorrect product listings. The good news? Each of these has a clear fix.
