 * Sorry about that. I was having trouble with it so I deactivated the plugin. I
   have gone ahead and reactivated the plugin as a draft. Let me know if you can
   see it. If not I can set to live so that you my help me troubleshoot the issue.
 * Thanks,

 * [@grady](https://wordpress.org/support/users/grady/).smith – Only published popups
   will show up on the site. Let me know when you get it published. If you can’t
   leave it active then possibly create a test page and target only that page so
   that the rest of the site is unaffected.

   correctly. Thanks.

 * [@grady](https://wordpress.org/support/users/grady/).smith – Looks like your 
   z-index is set to 1000 for both the overlay & popup. So since the overlay is 
   added after the popup it shows above it and you can’t click the popup through
   it. Imagine a window in front of the popup in this case.
 * Set the popup z-index higher than the overlay z-index.
 * You can adjust these under Display Settings when editing your popup.
 * Hope that helps.

 * Thanks for resolving that issue. But my original issue is that the page behind
   the popup is not grayed out. That is what I need to function correctly.

 * [@grady](https://wordpress.org/support/users/grady/).smith – Check your popup
   theme, be sure there is one created under Popup Maker -> All Themes, if not create
   one. Once done edit the popup and be sure that a theme is selected in the theme
   dropdown. Then update. Looks like your popup has no theme assigned.

 * I’m having this same problem. It used to work fine and then my client emailed
   me a couple weeks ago that it was no longer working correctly. Could it have 
   anything to do with the recent plugin update?
 * There is definitely a theme made and applied. The bkgrnd color is set to black,
   opacity 80%.
 * The popup apears correctly but no overlay. I’m currently testing this problem
   on 404 pages:

 * Hello…. I do love PopupMaker features
    But the Pop-Up doesn’t show up…. I try
   set up many ways, set theme, but it still not show up
 * p.s. I use only this popup, so it should not duplicate with others. Or it could
   not work with any plug-in?
 * Could you please help? Thank you
 * I set the pop up on the first page of below site

 * And set Targetting Conditions to Home Page

 * [@clicktravelexpert](https://wordpress.org/support/users/clicktravelexpert/) –
   I do not see a popup loaded on that page currently. Check your popups targeting
   conditions as it sounds like you may not have enabled any.
 * Hope that helps.
