Outlook add-in not showing up?

If you've installed our Windows Outlook add-in (installation instruction here) but it's not showing up in the New Message window you should check the following:

• Open the "File" menu:

• Click "Options"

• Select "Add-ins" in the left menu and then click "Go.." at the bottom:

• Make sure there's a tick next to "Publicate Outlook Add-in" then click OK

• Now close and re-open Outlook and you should see the Publicate icon in the top ribbon of the new message window:

• If the Outlook Add-in is still not showing in the ribbon, you might need to change your Outlook settings as follows: open an email draft > click the 3 dots in the top right corner shown below and then right-click the 'Import Publication' option and select ' add to ribbon'.
