Flipgrid - Pop-up Blocker
If you're having issues recording with Flipgrid due to a Pop-up Blocker, there may be one of two causes - Google Chrome's built-in Pop-up Blocker, or the third-party Chrome extension the district uses to block ads and malicious Pop-ups - uBlock Origin.
This guide will show you how to disable either, but only for Flipgrid (or whichever site is not functioning properly).
1) Click on the Padlock icon to the left or the address bar.
2) Scroll down to 'Pop-ups and redirects', click on the right side, and then click 'Allow'. This will disable Chrome's built-in Pop-up blocker for the site you are currently on.
3) At this point, I would refresh the website and test again to see if it is fixed. If it is not fixed, I would undo the step above and continue to step 4.
4) If the above steps did not fix, click on the red shield icon in the top-right corner. Then click the power button. This will turn off uBlock Origin for the site you're currently on only.
5) For what we just did to take effect, you will need to click the refresh button that appears.
The Pop-up issue should now be resolved. If it is not, you may contact the Help Desk. Having a screenshot of the error or issue on-hand is helpful.
