Nejčastější dotazy

What does this plugin do?

Pop-ups. Have a look at the Boxzilla demo site.

How to display a form in the box?

Boxzilla will work with any plugin that allows for shortcodes, like MailChimp for WordPress or HTML Forms.

Can I have a box open after clicking a certain link or button?

Yes, you can create a link that refers the box ID. For example, if your box has an ID of 94.

<a href="#boxzilla-94">Open Box</a>

Can I have a box open right after loading a page?

You can configure this in the box settings. Or you can add #boxzilla-13 to your URL, where 13 is the ID of the box you want to show.

Can I customize the appearance of a box

Boxzilla comes with a simple interface for customizing the pop-up appearance. But you can also use your own custom CSS if needed.

.boxzilla { } /* all boxes */
.boxzilla-5 { } /* only the box with ID 5 */

I want to disable auto-paragraphs in the box content

All default WordPress filters are added to the boxzilla_box_content filter hook. The example below shows how to remove them.

remove_filter( 'boxzilla_box_content', 'wptexturize') ;
remove_filter( 'boxzilla_box_content', 'convert_smilies' );
remove_filter( 'boxzilla_box_content', 'convert_chars' );
remove_filter( 'boxzilla_box_content', 'wpautop' );
remove_filter( 'boxzilla_box_content', 'do_shortcode' );
remove_filter( 'boxzilla_box_content', 'shortcode_unautop' );

Easy to install, uncomplicated to set, has worked like a dream on our site for years, only problem was caused by ourselves, but speedy remedied through the engaged intermediary of the plugin support. Thanks a lot!

It is great because every popup is a custom post, so it is super easy to manage.

I love this plugin and anytime I have to add popups to a WordPress website, I choose this one. It has everything you need and nothing extra, which is my favorite type of plugin.Personally, I would love it if you could choose to use the block editor, but it’s pretty perfect as is.
