# How to Set Up a Pop-up Trigger Button

A pop-up trigger button is a small, persistent element fixed to the side of your site that opens a pop-up when a visitor clicks it. It's useful when you want the form available on demand — for example, a "Get 10% off" tab that floats on every page, or a "Contact us" button that opens a feedback form.

## When to use a trigger button

Use a button instead of (or in addition to) automatic display when:

* The offer should always be reachable, not just triggered once per session.
* You don't want to interrupt the visitor with an unsolicited pop-up.
* The pop-up should reopen after being closed, so visitors can return to it.

## Open the button settings

Open your pop-up in the editor. In the form settings, enable **Show trigger button**. A new configuration section appears with the button's options.

## Configure the button

Setting up the trigger button takes six steps.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Choose a template">
    Pick one of the preset button templates. Each one gives you a different default layout — text-only, icon-only, or icon plus label.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Customize the appearance">
    Adjust the button to match your brand:

    * Upload a custom icon or image
    * Set the button size
    * Choose the background and text color
    * Set the font and font size
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose the position">
    Place the button where you want it on the screen — left edge, right edge, bottom-left, bottom-right, and so on. You can set a different position for desktop, tablet, and phone using the device-preview icons at the top of the editor.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set display conditions (behavior settings)">
    Decide when the button is visible:

    * **Always show to all visitors.** The button appears on every page where the form's targeting matches.
    * **Show after the pop-up is closed.** The button only appears once the visitor dismisses the pop-up — useful as a way to reopen it.
    * **Show only when targeting conditions match.** The button respects the same targeting rules as the pop-up itself.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set the pop-up to open on click">
    In **Trigger conditions**, choose the option that opens the pop-up when the button is clicked. Without this, the button will display but won't do anything.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Preview on your site">
    Use **Preview on site** to test the button. Preview mode ignores targeting and trigger conditions, so you can verify the button's position and appearance even on pages where it normally wouldn't show.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  For a button that should always be available — like a permanent "Subscribe" tab — pair **Always show to all visitors** with a pop-up that has no automatic trigger condition. The pop-up only opens when the button is clicked, never on its own.
</Tip>

<Note>
  Device-specific positioning matters more than it looks. A button anchored to the bottom-right of a desktop screen often overlaps a chat widget or a mobile bottom navigation bar. Always preview on every device before publishing.
