Insert basic opt in button
3 replies · Started by Andrew on June 18, 2020
All I want to do is to create insert a button that when clicks does one of the following two things:
1. opens up a shopping cart page from a different service
2. creates a two-step optin form to collect name and email.
I can't figure out how to do that. I'm sure it's simple. I have searched the forums and youtube but can't find an answer.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks!
Hi there,
if you want to display content from another site then maybe a pop up modal will help:

Then you would need to populate the pop up with the content.
If the shop is from a 3rd party then google displaying that using an iFrame.
You can then include the iFrame within your pop up.
Thanks for the fast response. I checked out your suggestion.
But let me just be clear as to what I need. I am simply looking to be able to add a button (i.e. box image) on to the page and that when someone clicks that button, I can either send them to another page or have an optin form open.
Is there a simple way to do that from what generatepress already offers, or is this something that i will need a third-party to enable?
I can either send them to another page or have an optin form open.
The method is different depending on which one you want.
If it's just to go to another page then this method should work:

Or you can also consider the buttons block in our new favorite GenerateBlocks:

If it's a popup then David's suggestion is required.
