Safari Browser popup Blocker is not working

Hi Apple Team,


I enabled popup blocker in my Macbook Pro safari browser using these steps Safari>Preferences>Security>Checked Block pop-up Windows


However, this seems to be not working. I want to enable pop-up blocker for specific website addresses. Is there any other way to do the above thing?


Please help to resolve this issue at the earliest.


Thanks & Regards

Tanuja Singh

Safari 12

Block pop-ups option is moved to Websites pane.


1. Visit the site.

2. Safari > Preferences >  (1) Websites > (2) Pop-up windows


3. Click inside the box next to the website and choose “Block”.


4. When visiting other websites choose an option other than “Block”.

You need to upgrade your OS to get the newest version of Safari.


Check each link for the computer requirements to upgrade to the OS to see if your computer can be upgraded.
