Hello,

I am trying to use the click selector to select a part of one of our webpages. the are highlights yellow but then I can't save anything that is clicked. Is there a way to create my own click selector with the coding on the back end?

this is the coding I found for the text we click that opens the panel i want to click after.  
(div id="SosiHeaderControl\_deleteFaxControl\_panelDelete" class="PanelDelete"\> == $0

When using the selector assistant, you should be able to click on elements highlighted with yellow. Once you click on them, you can click the save button on the Text Blaze dialog that appears.

You can also manually enter CSS selectors. Look at click command settings.

Is there a specific way the manual edit has to be typed out to work?

You can use CSS selectors.  
For example, in the element you provided above, you can use:

{site: text; selector=#SosiHeaderControl\_deleteFaxControl\_panelDelete}

Thank you! That shows that it worked but on the page I am using it on, the panel doesn't open when the trigger shows that it was clicked. This is what the page looks like (delete fax 1). when the yellow Delete Fax is clicked it should open a panel like the "delete fax 2" image

Hey @echapman do you receive any error notification stating that we could not find the element to click on, or do you receive the yellow box highlight confirming the "Delete fax" button was clicked?

I don't receive an error and I do receive the yellow box highlight around the delete fax button

Thanks for the confirmation. It sounds like this issue could be related to another issue that I'm working on fixing recently ([Using {click} to use "Create an Event" button in Gmail calendar sidebar? - #6 by Gaurang\_Tandon](https://community.blaze.today/t/using-click-to-use-create-an-event-button-in-gmail-calendar-sidebar/52375/6)). The fix may be live in Beta soon. I will keep you posted on the updates.

Hi @echapman, can you please reinstall the Chrome extension from the Web Store to get the latest version (3.3.0) and let me know if this issue still persists? Thanks!

@Gaurang_Tandon Thanks for the latest version. It still doesn't seem to want to open that panel for me. I get the confetti saying it tried to do something but it doesn't open the panel.

Never mind. I got it to work using a different click spot on the panel.  
Thank you!
