Sync isn't instant update sometimes it takes time from one change to update to another and they need to be both logged in and active to update correctly. This isn't like a DropBox where one change updates instantaneous and there needs to be time allowed for the data to update to match. Here's more read on sync to familiarize oneself.

One can still ask for help here as many people who help out here may have varying experience with the mentioned Extensions. They are not required to go elsewhere for help. Besides not all independent extensions authors have time to do support or provide a support place of their own (like a forum) for them.

This is not really the best place to ask for help on making your own Extensions however there is https://discourse.mozilla.org/c/add-ons/35 and https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Your_first_WebExtension to get you started.
