Information necessary for creating a new popup window is divided into the following sections: General Information, Where to Display, Popup Content, and Popup Design.
In General Information, you choose the status of the popup (enabled/disabled), any custom name, store view, and customer groups.
Then, select event for launching the popup (from five types available ), X parameter for the previous condition, animation effect (7 types available), and cookie lifetime in minutes (within this period the popup is not shown to a customer).
Next, you should specify where to display the popup. Depending on the option you choose, this section has different parameters. Thus, for a home page, shopping cart, and checkout, it is only necessary to specify the position of a popup window (9 options are available).
