# Menu shortcode – popup doesn’t work

 * I have a link in my main menu which I’d like to open a popup – I’ve followed 
   the instructions here [https://help.popup-builder.com/en/article/how-to-add-an-onclick-popup-on-menu-item-1aoopa7/](https://help.popup-builder.com/en/article/how-to-add-an-onclick-popup-on-menu-item-1aoopa7/)
   but it doesn’t work – the link appears but no popup.
 * I’ve also tried using the shortcode in the menu item ([sg_popup id=”6258″ event
   =”click”]Search[/sg_popup]) – this doesn’t work either.
 * However, if I use the same shortcode on another part of my page it does work.
 * Any suggestions appreciated.
    Thanks.
