We recently updated our Discourse installation to a new version and restored the backup from the old version. I’m still learning the settings and I can’t figure out how to disable an alert or popup message that appears before the page loads. [image] Users have to click OK to enter the site. I’ve checked all the settings and searched the forum, but I couldn’t find a solution. How can I remove this alert message?

Do you have a theme component or any custom code in the theme that creates a javascript popup?

This is not a native discourse popup so You’ll have to identify what is creating this message. You can test if it is a theme/theme-component on discourse by enabling safe mode

Thanks for the reply, Entered the safe mode, now the pop-up is not showing, In plugins section there exists these plugins [image] And in themes section, the default one is activated. From where will be this alert message comes from, It looks like a Javascript alert content.

Yess, :+1: thanks brother. I’ve found that, it is in default theme body [image] removed it :smile:
