Using Boxzilla with Mailchimp
Here’s a video that explains how you can show a MailChimp signup box when a link or button is clicked:
The plugin also has other interesting uses. Say you’re looking for a scroll-triggered Facebook page plugin (not so annoying as a pop-up) that appears in your right bottom corner. You just need to insert the iframe script from Facebook and it will appear every time after a certain period of time.
Thanks to Ibericode for providing such a useful plugin for free. I like the work of the people at Ibericode. Even though this plugin is very basic, it’s all most people need to get started.
If you know HTML and CSS, or know someone who does, you can actually customize the pop-ups beyond what the basic controls allow.
