Looking for a fast, clean, and high-converting WordPress popup plugin that won’t slow down your website? GazzIT Simple Popup Everywhere is the ultimate lightweight popup builder designed for site owners, developers, and marketers who need flexibility without bloated code.
Whether you are looking for a native Gutenberg popup editor or a free Elementor popup alternative that works without requiring Elementor Pro, this plugin gives you complete control to trigger popups on any page across your website.
Stop Struggling with Heavy Popup Plugins
Many popup plugins load heavy scripts on every page and slow down your Core Web Vitals. GazzIT Simple Popup Everywhere keeps things small and native: popups are built in the editor you already use, and assets load only where a popup is shown.
Key Features & Benefits
- Dual Editor Support: Create and manage your popups with either the WordPress Block Editor or Elementor.
- Block Editor Popups: Build popups natively in the Block Editor with the blocks you already use – including shortcodes and embeds such as contact forms.
- Elementor Popups without Elementor Pro: Design rich modal popups with Elementor widgets, and place them anywhere with the included “Simple Popup” Elementor widget.
- Popup Anywhere with Shortcodes: Insert a popup shortcode into posts, pages, custom post types or widget areas, or show a popup automatically on every page of your site.
- Lightweight: The popup’s small stylesheet and script are only loaded on pages that actually display a popup. No external requests, no tracking.
- Visitor-Friendly Frequency Control: Show a popup on every page load, or just once per visitor for a set period (a day, week, month, year, or forever).
- Show Delay and Overlay Close: Delay the popup by a number of seconds and choose whether clicking the dark overlay closes it.
- Flexible Positioning: Fixed on screen (center, top, bottom, left, right or any of the 4 corners) or absolute (opens where the visitor is on the page and scrolls with it), with offsets from the edges. Adapts automatically on phones.
- Optional Overlay: Show the dark overlay behind the popup, or hide it so visitors can keep using the page.
- Fully Customizable Close Button: Text or icon, either side of the popup, font size, and text, background and border styles for Normal and Hover states.
- Popup Box Styling: Width, background, overlay color, margin, padding and border settings, plus 5 ready-made style presets – or add your own from your theme.
- Accessible: Popups are announced as dialogs, can be closed with the Escape key, and move keyboard focus in and back out.
- Translation Ready: Ships with translations for 16 languages.
Who is this Plugin for?
- Agencies & Developers: Offer your clients a seamless solution that works with both Gutenberg and Elementor workflows.
- Bloggers & Publishers: Capture email leads, display announcement banners, and highlight popular posts without sacrificing speed.
- E-commerce Stores: Display flash sales, offer promo codes, and reduce cart abandonment with clean modal popups.
How to Use GazzIT Simple Popup Everywhere
1. Create your popup
Go to the Simple Popup admin menu and add a new popup item.
2. Design it
Build the popup’s content using either the WordPress Block Editor or Elementor – whichever you’re already using for the rest of your site.
3. Configure its behavior
In the “Simple popup settings” panel (Block Editor) or the popup’s own Style tab (Elementor), you can set:
* Show on – only where you place it, or automatically on every page
* Position – fixed on screen (9 positions) or absolute (center, left or right), with offsets
* Overlay – show or hide the dark overlay behind the popup
* Show popup – every page load, or just once per visitor for a chosen period (a day, week, month, year, or forever)
* Popup show delay and splash close behavior
* Close button as text or one of the built-in icons
* A ready-made popup style, or your own via your theme
4. Display it
* Shortcode: copy the generated shortcode (e.g., [gazzit-simplepopup id="123"]) into any page, post, or widget area.
* Elementor widget: if you’re building with Elementor, drag the Simple Popup widget onto any page instead and pick a popup from the dropdown – no shortcode needed, and you can override that popup’s visuals or timing just for this one placement without changing the popup itself.
Tip: while browsing your site as an admin, look for the Edit Simple Popups link in the admin toolbar on any page that’s currently showing one – it takes you straight to editing that popup.
Privacy
The plugin does not send any data to external services and does not set cookies. When a popup is set to “Once per visitor”, the time it was shown is stored only in the visitor’s own browser (localStorage) so it isn’t shown again too soon.
