HollerBox — Fast & Effective Popups & Lead-Generation

Works without problem. Simple configuration.

I installed the plugin and when trying to create my first popup I got the following error: “We could not load the editor because the defined template is no longer available.”

I can’t create any popups. Very disappointing, I really wanted to try this.

I was looking for something lightweight, simple, and, with an intuitive real-time interface for my client. This met the requirements.

Here are some sugestions for improvement, though.

1. Adding a template with a picture and button. Now, the only templates with pictures are the ones with sign-up forms.
2. Adding an option to set a lifetime of a cookie when the modal window is closed, including a session cookie for example.
3. Adding an option to open a link assigned to a button in a new window.
4. Don’t load styles when no window is active. It can be simply done by checking whether any post of hollerbox type is published.

I was hoping that this plugin was good… Luckily I only installed it on my staging page. That page got permanently spammed by a message that says “Attention: It looks like MailHawk is installed but is not connected to the MailHawk service.” I don’t have Mail Hawk and I don’t want it. But this message appears on top of all my sites in the admin area now, even after deleting the holler box plugin. Thankfully I can just renew my staging page and the spamming is over. But that’s real shady business!

Garbage plugin, installed on 10 websites, after an update all popups stopped working. When I try to edit it says “We could not load the editor because the defined template is no longer available.”
