I’ve published the campaign, but it’s still not showing on my site.

If you have published your campaign, but it is still not appearing, here are a few things to check:

• Ensure that you have correctly embedded the OptinMonster code on your site. Learn how to add OptinMonster to your specific platform in our guides.
• Sometimes, cookies from previous visits may be keeping the campaign from appearing for you while it is still working properly. Try clearing your normal browsing session’s cookies to remove any previously set cookies for this campaign before testing again, or test from a new Incognito window.
• If your site uses caching, clear it to ensure the latest version of your site, including the campaign, is displayed.
• Use our Live Site Inspector tool to ensure that the Display Rules configured in your campaign are correct and passing. This will help you identify any issues with your rules.
