Popups Admin Bar Cheat Sheet

When you hover over the Popup Maker 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 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.

There are 4 actions you can do for each popup in the Popups submenu. Let’s cover those now.

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.
