Is it possible to use my subscription through my local browser?

I have a digital subscription to hs.fi (Helsingin Sanomat). Sometimes I want to import an article into Lingq. What then happens is, that I get the part of the article (a short intro) that non-subscribers get to see, which is not the article.

I suspect this is because Lingq uses the http address to access the page on its (remote) computer and Lingq is not subscribed to the magazine.

Is it possible for Lingq to fetch the article locally, through my browser, as the add-on already is in my browser?

EDIT: I should add that this should probably be by an option on the addon that is off by default, as no-one wants this always to be on. So, when I have this article, I can switch the option on. Most other stuff is with the option off.

We can’t grab and import paid articles. That is why you get only the part that non-subscribers see. That is how it always worked on all subscription-required sites.

Fair enough. Thanks for the reply.

Granted that it might be annoying having to do a work-around, but if you have the full article, you should be able to import it for yourself manually via copy+paste, no? :thinking:
