Extension Overview

ExtraPopup is engineered specifically as a native extension for modern Joomla installations. It takes complete advantage of the Joomla 5/6 framework architecture, strictly avoiding legacy behaviors, non-standard library bundlers, or obfuscated code.

Engage your visitors at the exact right moment with ExtraPopup. Build sleek modal lightboxes, sticky announcement banners, slide-in notifications, and full-screen welcome mats with zero coding required.

Features precision behavioral triggers including exit-intent detection, percentage-of-page scroll, time-delay, and element click triggers. Control display frequency with cookie caps so returning customers aren't annoyed by repetitive popups.

Optimized for core web vitals with lightweight vanilla JavaScript (under 12KB) and zero jQuery dependency.

1-Click Native Joomla Updates (Download IDs)

Like all Codextra extensions, ExtraPopup integrates directly with the official Joomla Update Manager using Download IDs (DLID):

# Configuring 1-Click Updates in Joomla 5.x / 6.x:
1. Go to: Joomla Admin → System → Update Sites
2. Locate: "ExtraPopup Update Site"
3. Enter your 32-character Download ID in the "Download Key" field
4. Click "Save & Close"

When an update is released, Joomla will alert you in the administrator dashboard, allowing 1-click upgrades with SHA-256 integrity verification.
