I do when I catch her in the act inside? Yesterday I caught her and clapped a few times to startle

If you interupt her she will still have to go. You can get away with waching her like a hawk and praise her when she does go oustside on her own make that an extra special reward i.e special treat or multiple treats (number not size counts)
One thing I have a bit of difficulty with housetrain older dogs and using a doggie door is they know to use the door to go out when they want to go out but not associating going out on there own to potty. They wait to be told to go out or find a spot in the house if they are not told. By putting the dog on a schedule so you know when they will need to go watch them closely to precent accident but praise a reward lavishlywhen they do go out on their own is the secret otherwise they rely on you to tell them when to go.
