I’m in the process of a building a small WordPress bottom right corner popup. I ran into some trouble. This is my first time building a WordPress plugin. Anyways, I can’t figure out how to show it on the front static page of my website. Please help?

This is the only file I have in my Plugin folder. Where is my
mistake?

  1. I think you want to add output to the footer using the wp_footer action, not the admin_menu. The wp_footer is used to add output when the wp_footer() method is called by your theme. It’s a useful place for floating elements on the website.

    So it would be 

    add_action('wp_footer', 'myfirstplugin_admin_actions');

    and make sure your theme has the <?php wp_footer() ?> line somewhere appropriate.
