Troubleshooting

Version: 2.1.1

Troubleshooting

Popup never opens
  • Confirm the plugin is Enabled.
  • Test on the live site (frontend), not only in the admin.
  • Clear Joomla’s cache (System > Clear Cache).
  • View page source and confirm jx-loginpopup.css and jx-loginpopup.js are loading.
Auto-open from a link doesn’t work
  • Turn Open from URL hash on.
  • Ensure the hash matches your configured login/logout lists.
  • Guests and logged-in users use different hash lists — set both.
Colours or blur look wrong
  • Re-check Appearance settings and save.
  • Backdrop blur applies to the Modern theme only.
  • Some templates add strong global styles; scoped CSS variables usually win, but contact support if colours conflict.
Upgrading from an older Login Popup
  • Install plg_loginpopup_v2.1.1.zip over the old version; settings are preserved.
  • Existing sites default to Classic until you switch to Modern under Appearance.
  • Remove unused legacy files from media/plg_system_loginpopup if present from very old installs — not required for v2.1.1 to work.
