Popups are a type of small window that appears on a web page. You can use this feature to grab your visitors' attention or provide information without having to change pages.
To add popups follow these steps below:
- Click on Pages from the left-hand menu within your Website Editor
- Click the Popups tab
- Click + New Popup
- Select a popup type. The popup type pre-populates the popup with widgets
- Type a name for your popup, and click + Add Popup
Activate Popups
Unlike a page generated in the navigation automatically, a popup can only be triggered by being clicked as a link or by using a site personalization rule.
Link to a Popup
There are several widgets that allow you to link to a popup, such as Photo Gallery image links, text, and buttons. When editing the links for these widgets, select the popup option to open the popup selector.
Edit Popups
A popup is very similar to a page. You can add new rows, columns and insert any widget into a popup. To adjust the size of the popup, drag the bottom right corner.
Popup Settings
To edit the settings for a popup:
- Click on Pages from the left-hand menu within your Website Editor
- Click the Popups tab
- Click the Settings icon for a specific popup. You have the following options:
- Rename. Rename the popup in the editor.
- Duplicate. Creates an exact copy of the popup.
- Delete. Deletes the popup. This action is irreversible unless you have a backup.
Considerations:
- Popup triggers only occur once per session. A session is any activity on the site and remains active until at least 30-60 minutes have passed.
- To see your personalization rule in action, try 1) clearing your cookies and cache, 2) using another browser, or 3) waiting until the time has expired.
