Popup Maker – AJAX Login Modals

Popup Maker – AJAX Login Modals is a premium extension for the WordPress Popup Maker plugin that lets you create login-related popups (login, registration, password recovery) that work entirely via AJAX inside a modal, without pages reloading. This gives your users a smoother and more modern login experience while keeping them on the same page.

🔐 What It Does

This extension enhances Popup Maker so you can:

🧾 Instant AJAX-Powered Forms

• Show login, registration, and password recovery forms inside popups that submit without reloading the page.

• Use shortcodes like [pum_login_form], [pum_registration_form], and [pum_recovery_form] inside your popup content to insert these forms.

🚪 Force Login Trigger

• Automatically open a login popup when users land on your site (e.g., for protected content).

• You can hide the close button so users must log in to proceed, useful for members-only or restricted sites.

📌 Click Blocking Trigger

• Instead of a regular popup, clicking specific links (e.g., a download or content link) shows the login popup first. After successful login the user is forwarded to the original action.

🔄 Improved User Flow

• Because everything runs via AJAX in a modal, there’s no page refresh, which keeps users engaged and reduces friction.

🧠 Cookie Controls

• Triggers can set cookies for logged-in or registered status so the login popup doesn’t continually reappear once a user has completed their action.

📦 How It Works

1. Install Popup Maker and the AJAX Login Modals extension.

2. Create a new popup (or edit an existing one).

3. Insert the appropriate shortcode (e.g., [pum_login_form]) for the AJAX form you want to show.

4. Add a trigger like “Force Login” or “Click Blocking” depending on how you want the popup to appear.

5. Optionally use cookies to control when the popup should stop showing after login.

🧩 Why It’s Useful

✅ Better user experience: login/registration without navigating away.
✅ Higher conversions: fewer clicks and delays increase sign-ups and registrations.
✅ Flexible triggers: adapt to many use cases, from gated content to download access gating.
✅ Compatible with membership systems: works with many plugins that customize WP login flows.

📌 Typical Use Cases

• Membership sites that require login before viewing content.

• E-commerce where users must log in before checkout or accessing deals.

• Sites that want to replace the default WordPress login page with a smoother modal experience.
