Edit an existing Pop-up and customize it to suit your needs.

          your title goes here

          

- Pop-ups created using the old Pop-up method cannot be edited using the Visual Editor. ![Edit_popups](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/Screenshot%202024-07-05%20at%2011.24.58%20AM.png)
- Click **Continue anyway** to proceed with editing the Pop-up using the old Pop-up method, or click **Recreate** to recreate the Pop-up using the Visual Editor using any of the [6 Pop-up templates](/studio/docs/choosing-the-pop-up-template).

          Note

          

- Add up to 24 components to the Pop-Up, using the **Add Component** tab.

  

![Add component2](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/Add%20component%282%29.gif)

- Using the **Drag and Drop** feature, move or re-position different components on the Pop-up, both vertically (row-wise) and horizontally (column-wise).
- Each component has two Drag Handlers, the Horizontal Drag Handler and the Vertical Drag Handler for moving the component.

    

![Drag Handlers](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/Drag%20Handlers.gif)

          your title goes here

          

When you make changes to the Pop-up using the Drag Handlers, you may unfortunately not be able to undo certain changes. In that case, you may need to re-create the Pop-up. For more information, see [Can I undo the changes made with the Drag Handlers?](/studio/docs/can-i-undo-changes-made-with-the-drag-handlers).

1. Choose if you want to show the **Carousel Dots** and **Carousel Arrows** by enabling/disabling the respective toggles. ![enable_carousel_dots](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/Screenshot%202024-07-05%20at%2010.50.40%20AM.png)
2. To configure the Pop-up position, enable the **Position Popup** toggle. ![Popup_position](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/Screenshot%202024-07-05%20at%2010.25.20%20AM.png)

          your title goes here

          

- By default, the Pop-up appears at the center of the page, and end users can not interact with other elements on the application as long as they close/interact with the Pop-up.
- If you enable the Position-Pop toggle, your end users will also be able to interact with other elements on your application.

1. Set the position of the Pop-up.  

![Configure_popup_position](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/Screenshot%202024-07-05%20at%2010.26.36%20AM.png)

          Note

          

If your end user is using a mobile browser, then even if you have enabled the **Position Popup** toggle and configured the Pop-up position, your end user sees the Pop-up at the center of the page. This happens because of the limited screen space on mobile browsers.

1. Click the **+** icon to add a new slide to the carousel pop-up.  

![add_new_slides](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/add_new_slides.png)

          your title goes here

          

- Add up to **6 slides** in Carousel Pop-Up using the Visual Editor.
- Move the slides to the desired positions in the Pop-up by dragging and dropping the slide number.
- Remove a particular slide by clicking the **X** icon that appears next to the slide number.
- Since, it is a Carousel Pop-up, it needs to have at least 2 slides. If your Pop-up contains 6 slides, up to 4 slides can be removed.

1. Once you are done creating the Pop-up, click **Save**.  

![click_save_popup1](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/click_save_popup1.png)

The Whatfix Rich Text Editor enables you to format content using multiple options. It also enables you to link and include multimedia content.

The primary button is associated with a positive user action based on the Pop-up's contents. For example, trigger a flow or open a URL.

The Secondary Button is used to close or dismiss the Pop-up without triggering any specific action.

Drag Handlers are used to move or reposition the component within the Pop-up.

Use the Horizontal Drag Handler to move the component horizontally (column-wise).

Use the Vertical Drag Handler to move the component vertically (column-wise).
