Close/Open Popup and Create Cookie After Ninja Forms Submission

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.

See: Popup Maker Integration with WordPress Form Builder Plugins

See: Trigger: Form Submission

Popup Maker integrates directly with the Ninja Forms (NF) plugin to allow plugin users to set a browser cookie on form submit. The cookie prevents a popup that contains the form from displaying again after the form is successfully submitted.

Follow these steps to set a Popup Maker 'Ninja Forms Success' cookie:

Within the Popup Editor, scroll to the Popup Settings box;
Select the 'Triggers' option tab;
Select the 'Triggers & Cookies' option category;
Select the button labeled 'Add New Cookie'.

The option settings box labeled 'When should your cookie be created?' will open. Select the drop-down menu options to view the cookie options. Select the 'Ninja Form Success' option and then select the 'Add' button to set the option. Follow the remaining prompts within the option settings box to either add or update the cookie option setting.

The following videos use an older Popup Maker Admin interface ( before version 1.7+). However, the process to set and link a trigger with a cookie remains the same in the current version of the plugin. The example videos in this section demonstrate the link between a trigger and a Ninja Forms Success cookie.

Create a cookie just like you normally would, except use the "Ninja Forms Success" cookie option as shown in the below video:

Popup Maker Actions Following Form Submit Success

The Ninja Forms plugin allows users to set and display a 'success' or 'confirmation message' after form submit success. The success message is set and managed within the form plugin itself, not Popup Maker.

Popup Maker adds a 'Close Popup' and 'Open Popup' option within the Ninja Forms 'Email & Actions' option category. These options allows plugin users 2 ways to display a confirmation message after form submit success. See the related article link below for details.
