# Addon Won't Show

## ▸Verify Install

Verify that you've followed the instructions on the [**Install**](/v2.x/setup/install.md) page. Ensure that this includes both a good installation of rlib AND the addon itself. You can also follow the steps on the [**Verify**](/v2.x/setup/verify.md) page to ensure that both of these are functioning properly.

## ▸Revert Config Changes

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.

## ▸Use Latest Versions

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.

## ▸Check For Incompatible Addons

From time to time; certain addons from the Steam Workshop may conflict with purchased addons from Gmodstore.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Ensure you follow these instructions**. If you submit a ticket about the addon not showing up and it properly being installed; this will be the first process the developer makes you go through.
{% endhint %}

To eliminate the possibility of a Steam Workshop addon breaking this addon; please complete the following:

* **Open** your server's Hosting Control Panel (gmc, crident, etc).
* Locate the **Startup Parameters** section.
* **REMOVE** the steam workshop collection id associated to the server

![](/files/-MTk1IVwgo43hOCmdMH2)

* **Save** your server settings with **workshop id removed**
* **Restart** the server and then join
* **Check** to see if the addon now works

If you removed the workshop collection and your addon **does NOT work**; Submit a Ticket to the developer.

If you removed the workshop collection and your addon **now works**; you will need to use **Process of Elimination** to figure out which addon is causing a conflict.
