Pop-up on a Home Page

The built-in pop-up feature can be used for a variety of purposes, from important announcements to promotions. An example can be seen in the screenshot to the right.

Example of using a popup

To create a pop-up, create a stack in the installation's stack directory with one of the following names (see examples in screenshot on the right):

  • Popup: contents are shown to all guests
  • Authenticated Popup: contents are shown to authenticated users after logging in

Any content can be added to the stack, but keep in mind that the pop-ups are not designed to show large amounts of information.

Once a guest or authenticated user closes the pop-up, a cookie will be saved to the browser which will prevent the pop-up from being shown multiple times.

Each new version of the stack is treated as new content, so to force the pop-up to appear again, change the content and save the stack.
