How do I create a fly-in popup?

Fly-in popups are effective because they draw a user’s attention, but are relatively unobtrusive. The user’s experience isn’t completely disrupted, and yet the user knows that something of possible interest is available. For this example, we’ll wait for the user to reach the end of an article, and then we’ll popup an alert in the lower right corner that encourages her to read another article. We’ll show the popup on Desktops and Tablets, but not on Mobile devices.

Create Popup

1. Go to Dashboard > Templates > Popups > Add New
2. Name your template and click ‘Create Template’
3. Choose a template from the Library or create your own design
