Action not visible in page layout setup - salesforce

I have created an action to show a lightning component on the contact record:
When I go to the page layout editor I am not able to see the button to add to the page layout.
I tried with global action but that also doesn't seem to be working.
What am I missing?

We are able to see the button in Mobile & Lightning Actions in the Page Layout Edit page

Page Doesn't exist error for lightning page in salesforce

I have created a lightning web component and added this on the detail page of the account as quick action. As I need to open new page with that lwc component on click on that quick action so I created a lightning page through lightning app builder and added created lwc component there.
In the lwc component I am simply fetching data from one custom object and showing that. When I login with one of the salesforce profile then it's showing error Page doesn't exist.
I have debugged and found that the lightning page's tab's visibility is hidden and it's not showing through quick action. If I change visibility to default off then it's started working.
Can anyone please suggest me what I am doing wrong here. Any help will be appriciated.
Thanks

How can i change a component according to url but not change the page? React

For example i have a page /profile on there, the user isshowed his profile picture. When the respected user clicks on it, it changes to /profile/avatar. But, i dont want to change the page but show a component which otherwise will not be shown in /profile. Think of it as when you click on another's avatar in twitter, it changes to /#elonmusk/pfp a modal shows the image but it doesnt unmount the previous page
How can i implement that?

How should I use route&view

Background:
I am using backbone.js & Twitter Bootstrap in my client-end page.
On clicking the logout button on header, a confirmation dialog should open.
The question is that
should I use router such as /logout to change to logoutView ?
If click No in the dialog, how could I show the main content with data before the dialog is opened.
Thanks!
Yes, you can use a router and you should.
First thing to know, is you have to render application's layout before dispatching any route, because the layout is rendered and needed for every action, so it's independant, right ?
Second you create a "logout" route in your router and give it the "#logout" hash, then in your "logout" action you open the modal.
Don't use router for such thing. Just fire the modal directly because:
On changing the router, you are gonna push that to the History. Hitting the browser's back button shouldn't really open a modal window.
URLs should be crafted in a way to be bookmarked. You don't want a URL that would open a popup or a modal window!
It's much simpler just to start the modal than to create a variable to hold the previous view and to fall back to it when clicking No
I have build client-side apps using different MVC frameworks like AngularJS and Backbone.js. Every time I faced the same situation you are talking about and found that the easiest and most accurate way is to just show the modal.
UPDATE
Please watch this. This is Jeremy Ashkenas the author of backbone.js stating exactly your situation about how should URLs be used and weather if they should be used to open a pop up or not.

how to create a custom splash page in salesforce?

Need to show a popup message in home page only for the first time a user logs into salesforce....
its more like a splash page.
it can be a jquery popup as well..
can i do it using a visualforce page ??? if yes, please give ur suggestions
can we do it using the sidebar component in salesforce ???
I thought of showing it using a sidebar component by keeping a custom field in user object...everytime he logs in i will check the custom field and the show the popup...since this popup will be shown only for the first time is there anyother better solution instead of querying the user object evertime..
thanks.
You can use window.open method of Javascript and for the sidebar provide your scroll option.
If you want to get fancy to have customized look you can just use jquery modal with some style on document ready.
We can use cookie to store if this is the first time or salesforce user object can tell you this is the first time
