Popup that won't close???

Permalink
When we login into the admin the welcome back popup appears with NO close option?

Anyone know why this is happening?

Maybe some of your theme's styling is interfering with it? It can happen.

If you don't really need that popup you can also disable it so it doesn't show anymore

You can do it manually by adding a value to the file application\config\generated_overrides\concrete.php

Inside you'll find an array with many values. You need to add the following value:
'external' => [
        'news_overlay' => false,
    ],

So in the end your array should look something like this:
return [
    'version_installed' => '8.2.1',
    'version_db_installed' => '20170802000000',
...
some more stuf
...
    'external' => [
        'news_overlay' => false,
    ],
];

A better alternative that would help you with many things would be to purchase the plugin Handyman from the marketplace. With that plugin, you can enable or disable that popup from your dashboard and tweak lots of other settings that are not easily usable. White labeling for instance.
