Why doesn't my pop-up offer appear when I add a product to the cart? (Essential Upsell app)
The pop-up appears at a different step depending on its placement:
- Product Page placement: the pop-up appears when the shopper clicks Add to cart.
- Cart Page placement: the pop-up appears when the shopper clicks Checkout in the cart or cart drawer. Adding a product alone does not open it.
If the pop-up still does not appear, check the following:
- App embed. Go to Online Store → Themes → Customize → App embeds and make sure Essential Upsell is turned on for the published theme. Click Save.
- Offer status. The funnel must be published, not only saved. It must be a pop-up offer, and its trigger must match the product you are testing.
- Offer products. The offer products must be published, available, and not already in the cart. If every offer product is unavailable, the pop-up stays hidden on purpose.
- Fresh page load. A pop-up triggers once per page load. If you tested the button earlier on the same page, reload the product page and try again.
- Other pop-ups. Only one pop-up can use the same Add to cart click. Temporarily turn off other pop-up offers and product add-ons, then test again.
- Required product options. If the product has a required personalisation, engraving, or other option that is not filled in, the app does not open the pop-up. Complete the required fields first, then click Add to cart.
For the placement and trigger settings, see the Essential Upsell pop-up setup guide.
