# Forced Interaction Introduction

Upon activation of the plugin extension, a box labeled 'Forced Interaction Settings' is added below the Popup Settings box on the Popup Admin.

Select the checkbox labeled 'Disable Close' to hide the popup close button. Then select the 'Update' button below the 'Publish' box to save your changes.

### **Leave the 'Close Button Delay' Set to 0**

In:

**'Popup Settings' (box) >>** 

**'Close' (tab) >>** 

**'Button' (category) >>** 

**'Close Button Delay' (range slider)**, 

leave the value for 'Close Button Delay' set to 0 milliseconds (ms). Setting the value *greater than zero*will *redisplay the popup close button* after the Forced Interaction plugin code executes (an unwanted result).
