All the fields are self-explanatory. Highlighting few fields here

Set Cookie Value

Technically when a customer is subscribing, or creating an account using this module popup, or even if the customer clicks on the “Not interested” link, a cookie will be set in the user’s browser. So that when the same customer uses the same browser, the popup will not appear again to that particular user.

To disable this, you can leave the field empty.

Note:

– If you set a new cookie value, the customer will be getting the popup again

– If you are using multiple modules, set the same cookie value to all modules

Content Width

If you set to 100, the content in the popup will cover the entire poup.

You can reduce the value as per your need and how you want the content to be get covered in the popup screen. This is useful when you are using a background image to the popup.

Min Screen width when background image gets visible

This popup is designed responive. When a user is viewing the website in mobile/smaller screen devices you may want the content to be shown covering 100% of popup and you may want to disable the background image.

Therefore the content width setup is ignored and the background image will be disabled when the popup is viewed in a screen whose screen size is less than this particular value.

Make sure you setup a background color in accordance with the background image.

NOTE:

• Do not add more than one popup module in the same layout. You can use only one popup module to a layout. You can create multiple popup module and assign them to different layouts.
• You can use both block module and popup module in a layout.
