How to Add A Teaser for Your Lightboxes

What Is a Pop-Up Teaser?

A pop-up teaser is a small site widget that, when clicked, shows a larger pop-up or lightbox.

Teasers allow you to minimize or dock a lightbox on the corner of your site window when your site visitors close them. You can use a teaser to remind your visitors that they can access the information or form on your lightbox without obstructing their view, or you can use them to preview the contents of your pop-up before displaying the full pop-up. This can result in more conversions from the associated lightbox.

Teasers are great for newsletter signup pop-ups, which visitors may not want to submit until they’ve read a bit of your content first. For eCommerce sites, teasers are great for displaying ongoing promotions, free shipping information, or coupon code information for later access.
