## Troubleshooting

### If images don't show resize handles:

- Verify the custom CSS is loaded
- Check browser console for errors

### If crop modal doesn't appear:
- Ensure `onImageUpload` function is provided
- Check file input accepts image types
- Verify upload endpoint is working

### If styles look wrong:
- Clear browser cache
- Check that `custom-editor.css` is imported
- Verify Chakra UI theme is loaded
