 * Hi,
    you made a great work with Popup maker, my congrats!!
 * Just a suggestion.
 * In my opinion “add popup” shouldn’t be the first item in Admin menu, since the
   first item should be “All popups”. This is a standard for WordPress menus (posts,
   pages, media and all other plugins admin menus are like that ).
 * Even more important, is that “add popup” shouldn’t be the default action.
    In
   fact if I click on “Popup maker” in admin menu, a new popup will be added, wich
   is not what I expect to happen, so I have to delete the new popup all the times.
 * I’m afraid that a non-expert user, would end up with lots of unwanted popups 
   before realizing that “add popup” is the default action.
    That’s what happened
   to a client of mine.

 * [@aledef](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aledef/) – Hmm, I think there is
   something going on in your site out of the norm.
 * To your points:
 * 1. All popups screen should be first, **it is**.
    2. Clicking Popup Maker main
   menu item should go to All Popups screen, **it does**.
 * Here is a screenshot of a clean install, and I just clicked on the Popup Maker
   menu item to load this page.
 * ![](https://i0.wp.com/i.imgur.com/9LUyWgh.png?ssl=1)
 * The default url for the main Popup Menu item is & all popups screen is: `/wp-
   admin/edit.php?post_type=popup`
 * The url for adding a new popup is `/wp-admin/post-new.php?post_type=popup`
 * You either have a plugin modifying your admin menu, or one changing your permissions
   to disallow viewing all popups.
 * Hope that helps. If your issue is resolved please take a moment to [rate and review the plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/popup-maker/reviews/?rate=5#rate-response)
   or support.

 * Hi danieliser,
    I tested the plugin on a clean WP insttall as well with Twentynineteen
   theme and no other plugins.
 * Wp and theme are up to date, but still get the menu issue.
 * Please see screenshot here:

 * Please note that my test site is in italian.
    Could it be something related to
   italian translation?

 * I did some more testing.
    The issue goes away if I switch Wp to english, so it
   is definitely related to translation, at least to italian translation.

 * [@aledef](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aledef/) – Not sure how to prevent
   that if its based in the translation system. We don’t control any of that, its
   part of WP core. I will ask around, but my guess is that it has something to 
   do with the fact that some strings are translated and others aren’t, try removing
   the files in the languages folder of the plugin.

 * I’ll remove the the files in the languages folder, but they will be there again
   on the next update.
 * Hope yo find a definitive solution.
    Let me know if you need any help with Italian
   trnslation 😉

 * [@aledef](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aledef/) – We are working toward
   removing those language files for all languages that have valid language packs
   in the next major verion update (v1.9).
