Looking for a nulled copy of Popup Maker?
Here’s the part those sites don’t mention: the core Popup Maker plugin is free. Not a trial, not crippled, not time-limited. It’s on WordPress.org right now, and it always has been.
So before you install a cracked copy from somewhere you’ve never heard of, it’s worth knowing exactly what you’re trading away — and what you could just have for nothing.
What the free version actually includes
Most people who go looking for a nulled copy are trying to solve a problem the free plugin already solves. The free version gives you:
- Unlimited popups, on unlimited pages, forever
- Click, time-delay and form-submission triggers
- Full targeting — pages, posts, categories, taxonomies, user states
- Cookie controls so popups don’t nag returning visitors
- The full theme editor for styling
- Form integrations for the major WordPress form plugins
- Security updates, forever, at no cost
Paid Popup Maker adds exit-intent and scroll triggers, advanced targeting and scheduling, analytics and revenue attribution, and ecommerce and LMS integrations. Genuinely useful if you need them — but if you just want popups on your site, you don’t.
What those sites are selling is discontinued
We looked. The Popup Maker products listed on GPL and nulled sites — Advanced Targeting Conditions, Exit Intent, Scroll Triggers, Age Verification, AJAX Login and the rest — are individual add-ons we retired years ago. They aren’t sold separately any more, by us or by anyone else.
The copies circulating date from roughly 2020 to 2023. One site stamps every Popup Maker add-on it sells with the same date in April 2023 — that isn’t a release date, that’s the day someone downloaded the files and stopped. Another lists most of its catalogue at June 2020. Several charge between $4 and $16 for them.
So you would be paying for a years-old build of a product that no longer exists, with no upgrade path and no way to reach the current version. Those features live in Popup Maker Pro now. And the free core plugin those same sites list alongside them has always been free on WordPress.org.
Isn’t Popup Maker GPL? Isn’t redistribution allowed?
Yes — and we’ll be straight with you rather than pretend otherwise. Popup Maker is GPL-licensed, and the GPL does permit redistribution. A site handing out our plugin code is not, on its own, doing anything unlawful.
What the GPL doesn’t do is guarantee that the copy you’re downloading is the code we wrote. It says nothing about what a third party added before passing it along. And it doesn’t entitle anyone to our update servers, our support, or our license keys.
That’s the real gap. Not legality — provenance. You’re installing PHP that runs with full privileges on your server, from someone whose only relationship with you is a download button.
The practical differences
Updates stop mattering right up until they matter a lot
A nulled copy has its update check disabled — that’s usually the modification. When we ship a security fix, you don’t get it. You won’t know you didn’t get it. The plugin keeps working, which is exactly what makes it dangerous.
You can’t audit what you can’t diff
We’re not going to tell you every nulled copy contains malware — we haven’t inspected them and we’re not going to claim things we can’t prove. What we can tell you is that the code has been modified by definition (the licensing had to be removed), you have no way to verify what else changed, and WordPress plugins execute with full access to your database and filesystem.
Worth noting: the one Popup Maker file these sites do keep current is the free core plugin — the thing they could simply link to. The paid add-ons, the ones people are actually paying them for, sit untouched for years.
Nobody’s on the other end
When something breaks after a WordPress core update, there’s no one to ask. Our support team can’t help with a modified copy — not out of spite, but because we genuinely don’t know what code you’re running.
If you’re here because paid is out of reach
That’s a legitimate reason, and it deserves a real answer rather than a lecture.
- Use the free version. It’s the honest answer for most sites, and it costs nothing.
- Building for a client? The license is a line item — it belongs in the invoice, not your budget.
- Nonprofit, student, or hardship? Email us. We’d rather have you on a supported copy than a modified one, and we’ve said yes before.
- Not sure it’s worth it? Every paid plan has a 30-day money-back guarantee. Try it, and if it isn’t right, ask for a refund.
Already installed a nulled copy?
No judgment — just fix it properly, because a clean reinstall over a modified copy doesn’t undo anything that copy already did:
- Deactivate and delete the plugin — don’t just overwrite it.
- Install the free version from WordPress.org, or your licensed copy from your account.
- Run a security scanner such as Wordfence or Sucuri across the whole site.
- Change your WordPress admin passwords and database credentials.
- Look for admin users you don’t recognise, and for modified files in wp-content.
Your popups will be intact — Popup Maker stores them in your database, not in the plugin files.
Which Popup Maker add-ons are these sites listing?
If you searched for a specific extension — Forced Interaction, Advanced Theme Builder, Exit Intent, Scroll Triggers or any of the others — this is the part that matters. Each of these was an individual add-on we sold separately, and each has since been retired:
- Popup Maker – Advanced Targeting Conditions
- Popup Maker – Advanced Theme Builder
- Popup Maker – Age Verification Modals
- Popup Maker – AJAX Login Modals
- Popup Maker – AWeber Integration
- Popup Maker – Exit Intent Popups
- Popup Maker – Forced Interaction
- Popup Maker – Leaving Notices
- Popup Maker – Mailchimp Integration
- Popup Maker – Popup Analytics
- Popup Maker – Remote Content
- Popup Maker – Scheduling
- Popup Maker – Scroll Triggered Popups
- Popup Maker – Secure Idle User Logout
- Popup Maker – Terms & Conditions Popups
- Popup Maker – Videos
None of these are sold as standalone products any more. Their features were folded into Popup Maker Pro and Pro+, which is where they live today and where they still receive updates.
So when a GPL or nulled site lists “Popup Maker – Forced Interaction” or “Popup Maker – Advanced Targeting Conditions” for a few dollars, it isn’t an alternative route to the current product. It’s a copy of a discontinued one, typically built somewhere between 2020 and 2023, with no path forward.
What about Popup Maker Pro and Pro+?
We checked every GPL and nulled site that sends us traffic. As of August 2026, none of them carry Popup Maker Pro or Pro+ at all — not a current build, not an old one. Every Popup Maker listing we found was one of the retired add-ons above, or the free core plugin.
If you find something advertised as “Popup Maker Pro nulled” or “Pro+ cracked”, treat it with real suspicion. It is not a copy of our current release, because no such copy is circulating. Whatever that file actually contains, it came from somewhere other than us.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Popup Maker free?
Yes. The core Popup Maker plugin is free on WordPress.org — unlimited popups, no time limit, no feature crippling. Paid plans add advanced targeting, exit-intent and scroll triggers, analytics, and ecommerce and LMS integrations, but the free plugin is a complete popup builder on its own.
Is there a nulled version of Popup Maker Pro or Pro+?
Not that we can find. We checked every GPL and nulled site that sends traffic to us, and as of August 2026 none of them list Popup Maker Pro or Pro+ — current or otherwise. Everything they carry is either the free core plugin or one of the individual add-ons we retired years ago. If you see something advertised as “Popup Maker Pro nulled”, it is not a copy of our current release, because no such copy is in circulation.
Can I get Popup Maker extensions like Forced Interaction or Exit Intent nulled?
Those extensions — Forced Interaction, Exit Intent Popups, Scroll Triggered Popups, Advanced Targeting Conditions, Advanced Theme Builder, Age Verification Modals, AJAX Login Modals and the rest — were individual add-ons that we retired. The copies on GPL sites date from roughly 2020 to 2023 and are no longer maintained by anyone. Those features now live inside Popup Maker Pro and Pro+, so a nulled add-on isn’t a cheaper route to the current product — it’s an old copy of something that no longer exists.
Where did the individual Popup Maker add-ons go?
We consolidated them. Instead of buying extensions one at a time, everything is now bundled into two plans: Pro, and Pro+ for ecommerce and LMS features. Existing customers kept their licenses through the transition. The practical upshot is that the standalone add-on you may be searching for hasn’t been sold or updated in years, no matter where you find it.
Is it legal to use a nulled or GPL copy of Popup Maker?
Popup Maker is GPL-licensed, and the GPL does permit redistribution — so a site sharing the plugin code isn’t automatically breaking the law. What the GPL doesn’t do is guarantee the copy you download is the code we wrote, or entitle anyone to our update servers, support, or license keys. The risk isn’t legal, it’s that you can’t verify what you’re installing.
What’s the risk of installing a nulled or cracked WordPress plugin?
A nulled copy has been modified by definition — the license check had to be removed. That means it can’t receive security updates, and you have no way to audit what else was changed. WordPress plugins run with full access to your database and filesystem, so you’re trusting an anonymous source with your whole site.
Are the Popup Maker add-ons on GPL sites up to date?
No. One site stamps every Popup Maker add-on it sells with the same date in April 2023; another lists most of its catalogue at June 2020. Interestingly, the one file these sites do keep current is the free core plugin — the thing they could simply link to. The paid add-ons, the ones people are actually paying them for, sit untouched for years.
I already installed a nulled copy — what should I do?
Delete the plugin rather than overwriting it, then install the free version from WordPress.org or your licensed copy from your account. Run a security scanner such as Wordfence or Sucuri across the whole site, change your admin passwords and database credentials, and check for admin users you don’t recognise. Your popups will survive — Popup Maker stores them in the database, not in the plugin files.
What if I can’t afford a paid license?
Use the free version — it’s the honest answer for most sites. If you’re building for a client, the license belongs on the invoice. And if you’re a nonprofit, a student, or in genuine hardship, email us; we’d rather have you on a supported copy than a modified one.
