Create a popup¶
Show a message in the middle or at the edge of the screen, such as an announcement or a welcome note.
Who can do this: All Flook users
Before you start¶
- Install the Flook Chrome extension.
- Your company needs a main website. See Manage your websites.
Steps¶
- Go to a page on your website where you want the popup to appear.
- Open the Flook Builder.
- Click Add New Tour or Widget (+), then New Popup. You don't need to pick anything on the page.
- Edit the heading, text, image and button. See Edit the content of an item.
- In Popup Settings, change the Name.
- Under Show, choose how often it appears and the Delay. See Control how often an item appears.
- Optional: under Widget, choose a Placement: the centre of the screen, or one of its edges or corners.
- Click Save.
You can also start from the dashboard. Click Popups, then New Popup. See Create a tooltip.
What happens next¶
A new popup is saved as a draft. Once published, it shows on its own, 3 seconds after the page loads. By default it:
- appears in the centre of the screen, up to 400 pixels wide
- dims the page behind it
- appears once for each visitor.
Visitors can close it with the close button, the Close button, or by clicking the dimmed area.
Tips¶
- Popups at the edge of the screen can Slide in from outside it. See Backdrops and animations.
- To start a tour from your popup, change its button's Action to Launch tour. See Start a tour from a button.
