Why Pop-Ups Aren’t Opening on Vome and How to Fix It

If you’re clicking a button on Vome—such as sending an email or opening an action window—and nothing happens, your browser may be blocking pop-ups. While pop-up blockers help prevent unwanted content, they can also interfere with legitimate platform features.

This guide explains why pop-ups might be blocked and how to enable them in popular browsers so that Vome can function as expected.

Why Are Pop-Ups Blocked?

Most browsers block pop-ups by default to prevent spam or malicious windows. However, Vome uses pop-ups for important features like:

  • Sending emails to volunteers

  • Accessing event or user action menus

  • Viewing confirmation messages

To fix this, you’ll need to allow pop-ups specifically for the Vome Volunteer website.

✅ Allow Pop-Ups for: https://www.vomevolunteer.com
