Ability to turn off all Basemap Pop-ups

[parkcountygis]

For example, to disable a MAXAR popup from the Living Atlas World Imagery basemap - I have to go into the basemap and turn off each metadata layers popups individually, for every single map I have this on, which is all of my organizations maps...rather time consuming. It would be great if I could shut off pop ups for a basemap altogether with one button instead of 15. 

Thanks!

If you open the World Imagery basemap by going to  Living Atlas website and opening it from item details in Map Viewer, you'll see the pop-ups. If you move that map to your basemap, you'll still see pop-ups. However if you add World Imagery basemap in Map Viewer from your basemap gallery, pop-ups are by default disabled.

I have noticed with the October 2025 AGOL update - there is no longer an option within Map Viewer to turn off pop ups for world imagery, even though basemap pop-ups are still showing up when I click a random spot on my map.

There was a glitch introduced in this workflow with the October 2025 update. A recent patch has corrected this, you can now go into any basemap layer with pop-ups and disable those.

I noticed there is still an issue in AGOL to this day... Although I ONLY see the popups when clicking the map when the World Imagery is in there... 

Is this still an issue?

There have been changes since this thread began. Layer pop-ups can not be configured in basemap layers. If you make a custom basemap using the Imagery layer from Living Atlas, the pop-ups will be displayed and cannot be configured otherwise.

If your goal is to have an imagery basemap without the reference layers, then you can do one of the following:

• Toggle the reference layer in the Imagery Hybrid basemap off and save your map
• If implementing a custom basemap gallery, make a copy of the Imagery Hybrid basemap and remove the reference layer, then save it in your custom basemap gallery group.

I typically implement a custom basemap gallery in my organizations. Since I do not always want an imagery basemap with a reference layer, I've done as described in the second bullet and have added a custom Imagery Only basemap.

Note that not all layer types are supported in custom basemaps. See this help topic:
