wBounce

wBounce is the free exit popup software for WordPress, evolved by Kevin Weber. This plugin bases on Ouibounce by Carl Sednaoui. Exit popups are not only "in vogue", they are provably increasing conversions and therefore boost marketing, signups and sales. wBounce displays an inline popup before the user leaves your site. ("Inline popup" means that this is NOT one of those out-dated, annoying popups windows.) Inline popups catch the visitor's attention even if they are in the process of leaving your site. wBounce is the free alternative to charged services like Bounce Exchange or OptinMonster that are often used for landing page optimisation. wBounce is lightweight and renounces unnecessary scripts. You decide which features will be developed and implemented next. One concern in everyone's interest: Make sure to provide VALUE when you use wBounce and don't spam your visitors. This plugin makes it extremely easy to implement exit popups. You don't have to manually "hack" your WordPress theme. Just activate and modify it via your admin backend. It works with WordPress Multisite so that you can define a wBounce template for each site in your network. Demo and more information on the developer's website: kevinw.de/wbounce/ You want to enhance this plugin? Please contribute on Github. Features:

• Display inline popup before the user leaves the site
• Alternatively display popup on enter or after a certain time period (self-acting fire)
• Set custom content via backend
• Define custom content for pages and posts individually using a flexible template engine which uses so-called "magic shortcodes"
• Lots of open/exit animation styles
• Shortcodes from other plugins are also supported
• Determine sensitivity, cookie expiration, hesitation, and more
• Add custom CSS
• Set default status: Define if wBounce should be fired on posts and/or pages by default. You can override the default setting on every post and page individually.
• Event tracking with Google Analytics and Piwik

1. Upload wBounce into your plugin directory (/wp-content/plugins/) and activate it through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.
2. Configure the plugin via the admin backend and define your template. You can even insert shortcodes that are provided by your other plugins.
3. Optionally: Sign up to the wBounce newsletter to get notified about major updates.

Important: wBounce does not collect and store e-mail addresses itself. Therefore, you can insert any HTML. For example, you can copy the form code that's provided by MailChimp (or any other newsletter service) and the signups will be stored using your newsletter service.

• Fix: Enable meta box for posts with custom post type.

1.6.1.1

• Removed minified JavaScript file (which was used in WordPress backend only) because it caused (false) positives in several virus scanners.

• Updated exit popup script and improved self-acting fire.

1.5.1.1

• Fixed not working meta box besides page/post editor.

1.5

1.4.0.1

• Improved CSS to hide scrollbars in some browsers. Note: To hide scrollbars in all browsers completely, use the following custom CSS: .wbounce-modal .wbounce-modal-sub { overflow: hidden; }

1.3.3

• Fix: Improved self-acting fire. When self-acting fire fired, don't use exit popup again.
• Major CSS update: Removed fix height so that the content determines the modal's height. Default width is still 600px. When the modal's content requires more space than the screen is high, the modal is scrollable. Raised z-index from 1 to 21. Use CSS property "transform" to centre the modal vertically. Added margin to prevent the modal from being overlapped by the admin bar.
• New feature: Load script before footer. Normally, scripts are placed in of the HTML document. If this parameter is true, the script is placed before the end tag. This requires the theme to have the wp_footer() template tag in the appropriate place.
• Improvement: Use not minified JavaScript files when SCRIPT_DEBUG is true (defined in wp-config.php).
• Added version number to scripts.

1.3

• Renamed functions.php to wbounce.php. (This will cause your WordPress site to automatically deactivate wBounce. So you simply have to activate it again, that’s it.)
• New feature: Self-acting fire (timer). Automatically trigger the popup after a certain time period.
• New feature: Cookie domain.
• New: The cookie is stored for the whole site (and not only for specific pages/posts).
• New feature: Cookie per page. With this option enabled, every page/post gets its own cookie.
