Most popular uses include opt-ins for basically every situation imaginable, as well as lightbox style applications, or putting different types of visual media inside your popups.

Terms & Conditions Popups #

Trigger: Force Terms Agreement

  • Description: Popups displayed with the ‘Force Terms Agreement’ trigger do not have a ‘close’ button. Visitors must select the ‘I Agree’ button to close the popup. The trigger requires visitors to scroll to the end of the terms box before the ‘I Agree’ button activates. The trigger will block access to each page on which it’s targeted.
  • Uses:  Require agreement to terms before site entry or addition to a shopping cart is allowed.

Click Blocking

  • Description: This trigger prevents site visitors from opening any targeted page link until they agree to the terms displayed in the popup.  It works similarly to a Click Open trigger, except it prevents the targeted link from working until the terms and conditions popup is accepted.
  • Uses: Any page link on which a Click Open trigger can be set can be targeted using a Click Block trigger.

AJAX Login Modals #

Trigger: Force Login #
  • Description: This trigger will automatically open your login popup when a user arrives on your whole site, or specified page(s)/post(s). The Forced Login Trigger forces users to login before they can proceed to the site content, therefore the close button will be disabled and removed.
  • Uses: This trigger is the best way to control your content! This trigger is usable with Login and/or Registration Modals, as part of the AJAX Login Modals Extension.

Trigger: Click Blocking #

  • Uses: This trigger provides greater control over access to site content. A great way to provide visitors with access to file downloads!

Secure Idle User Logout #

Trigger: Idle Time

When the timer reaches 0, the popup closes and the browser is refreshed.  Use this trigger in combination with the AJAX Login Modals Force Login trigger to display a login form (requires a separate license for the AJAX Login Modals extension).
  • Uses:  Remove and protect sensitive information from view after a period of site inactivity. In combination with the AJAX Login Modals extension, require login to regain site access.
