Časté otázky
-
How do I create my first popup?
-
Install and activate the plugin. Then go to Settings > Webside Popup (or use the „Settings“ link on the Plugins page). Configure the options like trigger, content, and targeting, make sure to check the „Enable Popup?“ box, and click „Save Settings“.
-
Can I add a contact form or email signup form?
-
Yes. Select „HTML Code“ as the Content Type and paste your form’s HTML code into the „HTML Content“ text area. Note that this plugin only displays the form; it does not handle form submissions itself. Your form’s
action
attribute should point to the service or script that processes the submission. -
How does the ‚Specific URLs‘ targeting work?
-
You enter URLs or parts of URLs, one on each line. For example:
*/services/
will matchyourdomain.com/services/
andyourdomain.com/services/web-design/
.
*yourdomain.com/specific-page
will match only that exact page.
*/category/news/
will match all posts in the ‚news‘ category archive and posts within that category if your permalinks include the category.
The plugin checks if the current page’s full URL contains any of the strings you entered. -
What does ‚Everywhere Except Homepage‘ mean?
-
This option will display the popup on every page of your site except for your main homepage (the page designated as your front page or your main blog posts index).
-
How can I stop the popup from annoying repeat visitors?
-
Go to the „Optional Settings“ section. Check the box for „Prevent Showing Again (Cookie)“. Then, set the „Cookie Expiration“ duration (e.g., 7) and select the unit (Hours or Days). After a user closes the popup, it won’t appear again for them for the specified duration.
-
Is the popup responsive?
-
Yes, the plugin includes basic CSS to ensure the popup adapts to different screen sizes and avoids breaking layouts on mobile devices. The image display also uses standard WordPress functions for better theme compatibility.
-
What is the license for this plugin?
