Close Popup and Create Cookie When a Form is Submitted

Note: Popup Maker version 1.9 introduces the Form Submission trigger and cookie. Recommended good practice is to use the new trigger and cookie together when using a Popup Maker form or integration-supported WordPress form plugin inside a popup.

Warning! Code Ahead

Avoid the time and hassle of using code and switch to Ninja Forms, Gravity Forms, or Contact Form 7! Popup Maker comes with this functionality built-in if you're using the latest versions of Ninja Forms, Gravity Forms, or Contact Form 7.

Open and close popups, plus create Cookies on form submit with the click of a button by using Popup Maker and Ninja Forms, Gravity Forms, or Contact Form 7 together! Plus, these features work with all triggers.

Traditional Solution with Code

This solution works for Auto Open/Time Delay, Scroll, and Exit Intent Triggers.

Setup Your Cookie

First, set up your Cookie you're using the Manual JavaScript Cookie Creation Event in the Popup Editor.

After clicking Add, you will be able to customize every aspect of how your Cookie will behave. For detailed explanations on all of the Cookie Settings and features, check out the Cookie Settings and Features Doc.

Add and Edit Manual JavaScript

<?php
/**

 *  'functions.php' file starting with 'add_action()'.
 * -------------------------------------------------------------------------- */
add_action( 'wp_footer', 'my_custom_popup_scripts', 500 );
/**

 *
 *  Note: Popups are assigned a unique ID of '#popmake-{integer}'.
 *  From the WP Admin, view 'Popup Maker' -> 'All Popups' -> 'CSS Classes (column)'
 *  to locate the popup ID formatted as 'popmake-{integer}'. Change the placeholder
