# Popups Admin Bar Cheat Sheet

When you hover over the [Popup Maker Admin Bar](https://wppopupmaker.com/docs/problem-solving/turning-on-the-popups-admin-bar/), you'll see the following menu items:

- Popups
- All Popups
- Create New Popup
- Tools

Let's go over each one.

## Popups

Next to the **Popups** menu is a popup counter. The popup counter tells you how many popups Popup Maker sees on the page you're on.

Hovering over  **Popups** brings up a submenu that shows all the popups on your page. I.e., that list has all the popups that *can* display on the page you're on. 

  Note: Just because a popup is loaded on a page doesn't mean it will pop up (display). You still need to [add a trigger](https://wppopupmaker.com/docs/getting-started/add-a-popup-trigger/) to any popup you want to show.

### Missing a popup?

If there's a popup missing, it means that the popup was * **not*** loaded on the page. You might've forgotten to publish the popup or there's a targeting condition that's stopping it from loading on the page.

If you're having trouble getting your popup to load or display on a post or page, head over to our [Troubleshooting Your First Popup guide](https://wppopupmaker.com/docs/problem-solving/troubleshooting-your-first-popup/).

### Example list of popups

In the screen capture below, Popup Maker sees the following 5 popups on the page.

- General Test Popup

- Popup Maker Opt-in Form Success

There are 4 actions you can do for each popup in the **Popup**s submenu. Let's cover those now.

### Popup Actions

For each popup listed in the **Popups** submenu, you can do the following:

- **Open Popup**: Opens the popup.
- **Close Popup**: Closes the popup.
- **Reset Cookies**: Deletes any browser cookies the popup created. This is great for retesting the popup. You'll see a *success* message after the popup's cookies are cleaned out.
- **Edit Popup**: Loads the popup editor page for the popup.

**Above**: The 4 things you can do to your popup from the admin bar.

## All Popups

Clicking on **All Popups** brings you to the main Popup Maker admin page.

## Create New Popup

This is a quick link for creating a new popup. Clicking on it brings up the popup editor page with a new (blank) popup.

## Tools

Hovering over the **Tools** submenu shows options to **Flush Popup Cache** and **Get Selector**.

- **Flush Popup Cache**: Recreates the [popup cache files in the asset cache folder](https://wppopupmaker.com/docs/problem-solving/popup-maker-detected-an-issue-with-your-file-system/#what-does-all-that-mean-anyway). Use this to update your cached popup settings with your latest popup changes.
- **Get Selector**: Prompts you to click something on the page. The [CSS selector](https://wppopupmaker.com/docs/getting-started/popup-maker-glossary-of-terms/#css-selectors) for what you click on displays in an alert window. This comes in handy if you need to add an [extra CSS selector for your popup trigger](https://wppopupmaker.com/docs/getting-started/a-beginners-guide-to-popup-triggers/#extra-css-selectors).
