I've followed the instructions from: https://developers.google.com/apps-script/execution_custom_functions to create a custom function.
Neither my functions or even cut and paste from the tutorial works: the functions aren't available to my spreadsheets. I've tried saving a version and publishing as a web app - with no change. I tried Google Chrome and Firefox, same result. Am I missing something really obvious here?

As for the custom ones, Excel cannot validate the VBA code and identify other cells that could also affect the result of the custom function. Therefore, your custom formula may not change when you make changes to the workbook. To fix the issue, you'll just need to use the Application. Volatile statement.
The most common reason for an Excel formula not calculating is that you have inadvertently activated the Show Formulas mode in a worksheet. To get the formula to display the calculated result, just turn off the Show Formulas mode by doing one of the following: Pressing the Ctrl + ` shortcut, or.
Make sure you copy and paste the formula and not the resulting value. Copy the cell contents and click the top-left area in the cell to get the paste options. Click Paste Values and Formula. You'll paste the formula instead of the value into the cell.
You need to have a comment with @customfunction in it above your custom function. Google Sheets will then add you custom function to the autocomplete menu.

Not sure if this is what you ran into...but what happened to me is, I didn't see my custom function in auto-complete and I thought it's not working. But if you just type =double(A1) in a cell (using the official example, assuming there is something in A1...), it will compute!
