Pop-up The Pop-up is a dialog that opens over the page: a newsletter signup, a promotion, an announcement. You fill it with the same content blocks you use anywhere else, choose what makes it open, and set how often it may reopen for the same visitor. A shopper closes it with the close button or the Escape key. A newsletter pop-up open over the page Add the section The Pop-up lives in the Overlays group, which sits at the bottom of the section list on every page. 1. In the theme editor, expand Overlays at the bottom of the sidebar. 2. Click Add section inside the group and choose Pop-up (under Promotional). 3. Select the section to preview it in the editor while you style it. A store can have one Pop-up. It arrives with an Accent text heading and an Email signup block, ready to use as a newsletter signup. Swap or extend those with your own blocks: the Pop-up accepts the standard content blocks (text, image, buttons, and so on). See Content blocks reference. The Email signup block is the same one the footer uses: see Footer. The Pop-up in the Overlays group with its Accent text and Email signup blocks Trigger These settings decide when the pop-up opens and for whom. The Pop-up Trigger settings in the theme editor - Open pop-up: what triggers it. Load opens it when the page loads. Scroll opens it once the shopper scrolls far enough down the page. Delay opens it after a timer. - Delay: the wait in seconds before the pop-up opens, from 0 to 30. Shown when Open pop-up is Delay or Load. - Scroll trigger point: how far down the page the shopper must scroll before the pop-up opens, from 10 to 90 percent. Shown when Open pop-up is Scroll. - Show pop-up: how often the pop-up may open again for the same visitor, from Once every hour to Once per year. The default is Once every 30 days. Once a visitor has seen it, it stays away until the chosen period passes. - Show only on home page: limits the pop-up to the home page. On by default. Turn it off to let it open on any page. - Hide for logged-in customers: keeps the pop-up away from shoppers with a customer account who are signed in. On by default. Appearance - Size: the dialog width, Small or Medium. - Color scheme: the colors for the dialog surface and its content. The section also uses the standard Padding controls, including separate mobile paddings. See Common section settings. Tips - Show pop-up is the setting that keeps a pop-up polite. A visitor who has already seen it will not see it again until the period passes, so a longer interval reads as less pushy. - For a newsletter pop-up, Scroll with a trigger point around 50 percent tends to interrupt less than Load: the shopper has shown interest before you ask for their email. - While testing, remember the frequency cap applies to you too. If the pop-up does not reopen on the storefront, you have most likely seen it within the chosen period; check it in the theme editor instead, where it always shows. - Keep the content short. One heading, one line of text, and one action fit the small dialog; a long stack of blocks forces the dialog to scroll.
