# Configuring your web browser to allow pop-up windows

LitCommerce requires pop-up windows to be enabled for certain connection steps. This article guides you through configuring your browser to allow them.

{% hint style="info" %}
**If you use third-party browser extensions or security software to block pop-ups (such as AdBlock, uBlock Origin, or antivirus suites), consult the provider’s documentation to allow pop-ups for your desired websites.**
{% endhint %}

## <mark style="color:$primary;">**Safari (macOS)**</mark>

Safari for macOS offers per-website control for managing pop-up windows. You can choose to allow pop-ups for specific trusted sites while keeping them blocked for others.

To allow pop-ups for a specific site:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Open Safari and go to the website you want to allow, in this case: *app.litcommerce.com*.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
From the Safari menu, choose `Settings` (or `Preferences`).

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Click the `Websites` tab and select `Pop-up Windows` from the left sidebar.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Find LitCommerce in the list and change the setting to `Allow`.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## <mark style="color:$primary;">**Google Chrome (Windows/macOS)**</mark>

Follow the steps below to configure Google Chrome to allow pop-ups for a specific site:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Open Chrome and navigate to the website you want to allow, in this case: *app.litcommerce.com*.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Copy the URL from the address bar (shortcut: `Ctrl+C` on Windows or `Cmd+C` on Mac).

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Click the three vertical dots (⋮) in the top-right corner and select `Settings`.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
On the left sidebar, click `Privacy and security`, then click `Site settings` in the main window.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Scroll down to the `Content` section and click `Pop-ups and redirects`.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Under the `Customized behaviors` section, find `Allowed to send pop-ups and use redirects`, and click `Add`.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Paste the URL you copied earlier and click `Add`.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="success" %}

* **You can also click the Lock icon 🔒 (or Settings sliders icon) to the left of the URL in the address bar to open `Site settings` and toggle `Pop-ups and redirects` to "Allow" for an even faster way.**

* **It is recommended to paste the exact URL of the page you wish to allow, rather than typing a generic domain.**&#x20;

**For example, you might visit `www.example.com`, but the content requiring a pop-up may actually be hosted at `app.example.com/forms/`. In this case, you must allow the specific host (`app.example.com`).**&#x20;

**While you can allow individual pages, using the base domain ensures all related pop-ups from that source are permitted.**
