Meaning of Dux-Soup colours

The colour of the Dux-Soup icon changes based on several factors, including:

  1. Dux-Soup Edition: The specific version of Dux-Soup in use.
  2. Extension Activity: Whether the extension is active or idle.
  3. Access to LinkedIn Profile Lists: Whether a LinkedIn profile list is accessible and ready for automation.
  4. Running Automation: Whether automation tasks are currently being executed.

Context-Specific Behavior

  • Active Tab Without LinkedIn Profile List: The icon may turn red, black, or turquoise if the active tab displays a LinkedIn page without a profile list (e.g., the LinkedIn homepage or a company page). Dux-Soup can only scan, enroll or auto-visit pages displaying profile lists, such as LinkedIn search results or your contacts list.
  • Green Icon in Search Mode: When performing a LinkedIn search that displays a list of profiles, the icon will turn green, signalling that Dux-Soup is ready to operate.

By understanding these colour indicators, users can effectively manage and troubleshoot Dux-Soup’s behaviour to optimize automation workflows.
