Good try, nice features, but doesn't work
By , for WP 3.4.2

All I can say is this:
Warning: Missing argument 2 for wpdb::prepare(), called in /home/sitename/public_html/test/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-popup/popoverincludes/classes/popoverpublic.php on line 92 and defined in /home/sitename/public_html/test/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 990

right after I installed and configured everything. Seems like it is a nice plugin, quite a number of features, but it doesn't work.

Requires support which is what their really selling
By , for WP 3.4.2

all the issues with this plugin that are repeated by everyone that has not bought a support package from wpmudev is true. i installed the plugin configured a pop up and there is no sign of how to insert this pop up in a page. ill stay away from all their products coded to make money not productive for wordpress.

Not a huge fan
By , for WP 3.4.2

There is no way to shade out the background of the popup from the plugin interface so it ends up this weird floating box in the middle of the page. It does that and it does it well which could work for some, but not what I was looking for.

The low star rating, however, is thanks to the weird warning message it leaves at the top of EVERY SINGLE SCREEN in the admin area, not just the plugin's screen asking you to install the update notification plugin from WPMU DEV. Want to add a new post? Oh look, an annoying red box. There is no way to get rid of it. No. Thanks.

works!
By , for WP 3.4.2

Just as it should)
Can contain SmartResponder code.

Upd.: throws a warning after adding a popup:
" Warning: Missing argument 2 for wpdb::prepare(), called in /wp-content/plugins/wordpress-popup/popoverincludes/classes/popoverpublic.php on line 92 and defined in /wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 990"
not user-friendly behavior.

Spamware
By , for WP 3.5.1

the plugin isnt bad...except u have to do some coding to get rid of an annoying spam caption about another plugin they make that appears on EVERY SINGE PAGE of the back end.

it seems tons of ppl have complained, but the stupid spam caption remains, and with no easy way to turn it off.

to the devs: ur decision to include this bit of spam, and make it hard to turn off, and ignore the million ppl before me that have complained of the very same thing has turned an otherwise 4 star rating into a single star. now is it really worth it?
