  • This can happen if the Google account logged in in your Chrome browser is DIFFERENT from the account that you signed into the Travel Mapper extension with. To fix this, follow the answer for FAQ #2 below and sign in with the SAME Google account that is logged in in your Chrome browser.
  • Once the accounts are consistent, try creating the itinerary sheet again. You should see the itinerary tab with a proper template created.
