  • Native popup builder

    I have tried basically all the popup builders, and using the native Block Editor interface is a game changer. Thanks Nelio for the great plugin and fast support!

  • Great Popup-Maker! Thank you!

    Wow. This is the only simple popup maker, that does exactly what I want. Thank you so much! I just have two small requests: Could you please add the "Content is"/"posts"/"category"(!) option under "Selected Groups" in the free version so that I can filter by post "category" (I have a category with news-posts, where I don't want the popup to appear)? And please add an option to enlarge the "Close" button (the 12x12px svg is really too small for the popup)! THANK YOU

  • Pop ups que hacen lenta la pagina

    Hola! Ayer hice una consulta a los desarrolladores porque usé 22 pop ups en mi pagina y como estas se cargan en todas las páginas (no se renderizan, solo se cargan) hacían que mi sitio fuera extremadamente lento y demorara al cargar. Los desarrolladores en menos de 2 horas me ayudaron y me dieron la opción de usar un filtro en el codigo PHP de manera que solo se cargaran los pop ups en la página que se visualizará (en mi caso era en una sola página. Les dejo el código por si les es útil. add_filter( 'nelio_popups_active_popups', function( $popups ) { if ( isset( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] ) && strpos( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], 'NAME_OF_PAGE' ) !== false ) { return $popups; } return [];} ) Muchas gracias, excelente equipo!

    I was looking for a simple pop-up plugin and this was just the right one. If you are looking for a simple and intuitive popup plugin with no extra features, give it a try. The support is also excellent, fast and courteous.
