I'm looking for the abiity to have a lightbox pop up on a page that simply redirects to another page on my site. Heard about a special we have but lost the email with the direct link? Click here and there you are. Seems so much simpler than a form pop-up, but I don't want to use a store template.
"Instead of full page interstitials, use banners that take up only a small fraction of the screen to grab your users' attention. These can be implemented in various ways. For example, for app install banners, you can use a browser-supported banner, such as Smart App Banners for Safari or in-app install experience for Chrome. Another option is to create a simple HTML banner, similar to a typical small advertisement, that links to the correct app store for download. You can reuse these small containers for other kinds of notifications, such as newsletter sign-up prompts." From Google Developers Portal
We did a simplified redirect to the landing page which has the entire process (landing page, thank you page, confirmation email) by creating the pop-up form and then in the section where you create the "thank you page" you put a link in there that directs them to the landing page you want to promote. In our initial form that the system requires you to create you can put only 1 field (i.e. email address). We have progressive forms so when they click on the link in the thank you page from the pop-up they do not have to populate additional fields and/or nominal fields - depending on whether they were previously cookied. Not ideal but a workaround
Hubspot is real close with their existing setup and pop up forms. They just need to add some basic and simple functionality. Like adding a HS LP rather than an email. Seems to be an oversight that they would not add that into their form functions.
Thank you SO VERY MUCH. You put a lot of effort into this and I really do appreciate it. However, what I had in mind is something more simple like the lead flow pop-ups, only without the form part. Just click here to go there.
Gah, if you give lessons on coding to this extent, I might sign up! 🙂
I see what you mean now... I do agree that it would be very beneficial to have the ability to set up a lead flow with a CTA button instead of a form. As of right now, you can only set up the lead flow to redirect to a page once you fill out the a form. It's not possible to create one without a form at the moment - the email adress field is required. However, I think that would be a fantastic addition to the lead flow feature. 🙂
This is seems like it would be a basic feature to add on. I too just went to create a pop up and noticed that it defautls ONLY to a form. I would prefer have it go to an exisiting HS LP promo. Definatly would be awesome to have some customization to the CTA.
Would also be great (perhaps there already is a solution available) if you can use an existing form rather than creating all the details behind a form. For instance...I have an event I want to promote using a pop-up. The page with form and the confirmation email is all in place. Would be great just to direct to that instead of recreating the wheel.
Thanks. I downloaded the app. While it is a consideration there are limitations. Most importantly with the "native" pop-up form you can apply to multiple pages at at time.
Also, this application is limited to only HS created landing pages. While the pop-up forms you can direct to a page on your website that isn't necessarily a HS Landing page.
But I can see some use cases where this will be interested to test with. Thanks for the suggestion.
I still hope they provide improvements to the "native" pop-up forms to include the direct connection to Landing Page, forms, emails, CTAs etc.
