Pop-up blocker
Can't open the Wix editor or Wix templates? It likely because you have to "allow pop-ups from Wix.com". Below you'll find step-by-step instructions to resolving this challenge.
Summary
Most current versions of Internet Explorer, Netscape and Firefox contain built in pop-up blockers.
As many of the features in Wix.com feature pop-ups or automatically open a new browser you will need to allow pop-ups from Wix.com.
Don't worry. It's simple to fix. Just follow the steps below.
Steps for Firefox
The Firefox browser includes a pop-up blocker that by default blocks all pop-ups, and therefore may block links to Wix.com that open in separate windows.
To allow pop-ups from Wix.com:
1. Select the “Tools” menu
2. Select “Options…”
3. Select “Content”
4. Click “Exceptions…” opposite “Block pop-up windows”
5. Type “www.Wix.com” and click “Allow”
6. Click “Close” to close Allowed Sites - Popups
7. Click “OK” to close Options
From now on, you will be able to use Wix.com.
Note: In the Mac OS X version of Firefox, you need to select Preferences on the Firefox menu, instead of Options on the Tools menu.
Steps for Explorer
Internet Explorer 6
The version of the Internet Explorer 6 browser includes a pop-up blocker that by default blocks most unrequested pop-ups, and therefore may block links from Wix.com that open in separate windows. The blocker allows you to stop blocking pop-ups from specific websites:
1. Select the “Tools” menu
2. Select “Pop-up Blocker”
3. Select “Pop-up Blocker Settings...” and a dialog box will open
In the Pop-up Blocker Settings dialog box:
4. Type “www.wix.com” in the “Address of Web site to allow” text box
5. Click “Add”
6. Click “Close”
This will add www.Wix.com to the list of allowed sources of pop-ups. From now on, you will be able to use Wix.com as usual
