What it does
Many sites need a way to show a notice, offer or signup form without redesigning their pages. This plugin handles that with three overlay types: a full bar that either pushes your content down or layers over it, a side box, and a classic popup or lightbox. You can place them in the header, footer, left, right or center popup areas, and fill them with content using more than 50 ready shortcodes or shortcodes imported from your other plugins and themes.
The real depth is in the targeting. You decide which pages, post types, categories, tags, archives and custom taxonomies show an overlay, and you can filter by user role, WPML language, WooCommerce conditions, bbPress and BuddyPress data. Activation periods let you tie overlays to campaigns, and open and close triggers respond to page load, delays, page views, time on page, exit intent, scrolling, clicks or WooCommerce cart abandonment.
Best for
- Marketers running timed promotions and announcements
- WooCommerce stores targeting shoppers with offers
- Multilingual or community sites using WPML, bbPress or BuddyPress
Features
Choose a full bar that pushes or layers over content, a side box, or a popup and lightbox layout depending on how prominent the message should be.
Place overlays in the header, footer, left side, right side or as a centered popup window so each message sits where it makes sense.
Fill overlays with over 50 ready-to-use shortcodes, and bring in shortcodes from other plugins and themes you already run on the site.
Show overlays by page, post type, category, tag, archive, custom taxonomy, user role, WPML language, WooCommerce conditions, bbPress or BuddyPress data.
Set multiple time windows when an overlay is active, which suits limited campaigns, events and seasonal promotions.
Open or close overlays on page load, after a delay, after a number of page views, after seconds spent, on exit intent, scroll or click.
Target shoppers who leave items behind with a trigger built around WooCommerce cart abandonment behavior.
Adjust colors, fonts, animations and custom CSS to match your brand, with layouts that adapt to desktops, tablets and phones.
Questions about Popping Content
What kinds of overlays can I create?
You can build a full bar overlay that either pushes your page content or layers on top of it, a side box, or a traditional popup or lightbox. Each can be positioned at the header, footer, left, right or center popup area.
Can I show a popup only on certain pages or to certain users?
Yes. Visibility rules cover pages, post types, categories, tags, archives and custom taxonomies, plus user roles, WPML languages, WooCommerce conditions, and bbPress and BuddyPress data. You can combine these to target overlays quite narrowly.
Does it support exit intent popups?
It does. Exit intent is one of the open triggers, alongside page load, time delays, number of page views, seconds spent on the site, scrolling, clicks and a WooCommerce abandoner trigger.
Can I put content from other plugins inside an overlay?
Yes. Besides the more than 50 included shortcodes, you can use shortcodes imported from other plugins and themes, so forms or other elements you already use can appear inside your overlays.
