Title: Negative condition Last modified: July 15, 2022 --- # Negative condition * Resolved [Dan Stramer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danstramer/) * (@danstramer) * [3 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/negative-condition-2/) * Hello I have set up a negative condition so the popup doesn’t show in 2 pages. I’m using the “OR” option and clicked the ‘!’ mark, which turned into red. But still, the pop up is showing on these pages. Is there anything else that should be done? * See screenshot here: [https://www.dropbox.com/s/eo9ijmmuegi53n5/popup.jpg?dl=0](https://www.dropbox.com/s/eo9ijmmuegi53n5/popup.jpg?dl=0) I also tried the ‘AND’ operator but the popup still shows up ([https://wordpress.org/support/topic/exclude-targeting-not-working/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/exclude-targeting-not-working/)). * Thanks, Dan - This topic was modified 3 years, 8 months ago by [Dan Stramer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danstramer/).

The popup does not show on selected pages with the negative condition. * Here’s how we test it: * [https://share.getcloudapp.com/7Ku6X0pA](https://share.getcloudapp.com/7Ku6X0pA) * It looks like a caching issue. * Could you try the following? * – Ensure ‘AND’ operator is in use on the targeting settings. – Ensure the selected targeting has the negative condition. – Clear out any browser, WordPress, server, database, and CDN caches you have. – Retest using a private or incognito window with no active browser extensions. * Learn more about what to do if you don’t see your changes. * > [I Make Changes and Nothing Happens](https://wordpress.org/support/article/i-make-changes-and-nothing-happens/) * Let us know how that goes. * Thanks! * Thread Starter [Dan Stramer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danstramer/) * (@danstramer) * [3 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/negative-condition-2/#post-15833087) * Hi, Thanks for your reply. I’ve applied the ‘AND’ operator but the condition only works for the first condition (‘pages selected’) The other pages where a taxonomy of ‘landing page’ is applied still shows the popup: [https://artofretirement.ca/landing-page-tax-efficient-retirement/](https://artofretirement.ca/landing-page-tax-efficient-retirement/) On this page: [https://artofretirement.ca/join-our-mailing-list/](https://artofretirement.ca/join-our-mailing-list/) the pop up is not showing (which is correct). So it seems it’s picking up just the first condition. I’m using incognito window. * it’s counter intuitive to use the ‘AND’ operator since these 2 conditions are not related and will never happen together. * See screenshot: [https://www.dropbox.com/s/yag13txkcfc6t6y/popup-and-operator.jpg?dl=0](https://www.dropbox.com/s/yag13txkcfc6t6y/popup-and-operator.jpg?dl=0) * Please let me know your thoughts, * Thanks, Dan * [Bel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/belimperial/) * (@belimperial) * [3 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/negative-condition-2/#post-15833122) * Hi [@danstramer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danstramer/) * Thank you for your reply, and for the clarification. * In my understanding, categories and tags (taxonomy) are enabled for WordPress post type – **Pages**. * Could you replace the targeting for the landing page, and use **“Pages: With Category”**, and select landing page? * For example: [https://share.getcloudapp.com/z8umdxgN](https://share.getcloudapp.com/z8umdxgN) * It will not show the popup on landing pages with that taxonomy category, but if you don’t want to show the popup on the specific page [https://artofretirement.ca/landing-page-tax-efficient-retirement/](https://artofretirement.ca/landing-page-tax-efficient-retirement/), kindly use “Pages: Selected”, and select that page. * We hope that helps. Let us know how that goes. * Thank you! * Thread Starter [Dan Stramer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danstramer/) * (@danstramer) * [3 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/negative-condition-2/#post-15833188) * Thanks Bel, that solved it. * Dan * [Bel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/belimperial/) * (@belimperial) * [3 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/negative-condition-2/#post-15836925) * Hi [@danstramer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danstramer/) * Awesome!
