Put a waitlist on your site before the thing is ready, let people join, count down to the date \u2014 then tell everyone waiting the moment it opens.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Find out if anyone wants it first.<\/strong> Set a goal on a drop \u2014 \"we make it at 50\" \u2014 and Droplark gives you a shareable page with the count on it. Everyone who joins makes it likelier to happen, so people share it for you. No stock, no risk, no guessing.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Build the queue.<\/strong> A waitlist widget captures emails before you open, and every joiner sees their place in line. Referrals move them up it.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Make opening day loud.<\/strong> One click emails everyone who joined that specific drop \u2014 not your whole list. Countdown timers and early access for the people who waited.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Games that hand out codes.<\/strong> Ten of them \u2014 spin-to-win, scratch card, mystery box, balloon pop, memory match and more \u2014 so a visitor who isn't ready to buy still leaves you an email and a reason to come back.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>And when they do come back:<\/strong> optional loyalty points and stamp cards, date clubs, Apple &amp; Google Wallet passes, shareable win images, and public leaderboards. Widgets speak English or Arabic (RTL), per site.<\/p>\n\n<p>This plugin adds the Droplark loader to your site and lets you place widgets with a shortcode or float one site-wide. Configure your drops, widgets, prizes and themes at droplark.com \u2014 new features appear on your site automatically, no plugin updates needed. Droplark has a free plan, so you can use it without paying.<\/p>\n\n<h3>External services<\/h3>\n\n<p>This plugin relies on Droplark (https:\/\/droplark.com), the third-party service that powers your widgets, so that a widget you configure can load and run on your site.<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>What it does:<\/strong> on page views where a widget is included, the plugin adds a <code>&lt;script&gt;<\/code> tag that loads Droplark's widget runtime (<code>w.js<\/code>) from droplark.com. That runtime then requests your site's widget configuration from Droplark and, when a visitor plays a widget or joins a waitlist, submits the information the visitor entered to Droplark, which stores it in your Droplark dashboard on your behalf.<\/li>\n<li><strong>When data is sent:<\/strong> the runtime script loads with the page; visitor data is transmitted only when a visitor actually submits a widget.<\/li>\n<li><strong>What data is sent:<\/strong> the publishable key you configured, your page's origin (used by Droplark to verify the domain), and any details a visitor enters into a widget (for example an email address and any custom form answers).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>By installing this plugin you agree to Droplark's terms and acknowledge its privacy practices:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Terms of Service: https:\/\/droplark.com\/docs\/terms<\/li>\n<li>Privacy Policy: https:\/\/droplark.com\/docs\/privacy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<!--section=installation-->\n<ol>\n<li>Create a free account at droplark.com and add your site (use this site's domain).<\/li>\n<li>Install and activate this plugin.<\/li>\n<li>Go to Settings \u2192 Droplark and paste your publishable key (pk_live_...).<\/li>\n<li>Back at droplark.com, click Verify next to your domain \u2014 the plugin's snippet is the proof.<\/li>\n<li>Create a widget, then include it: add <code>[droplark widget=\"ID\"]<\/code> to a page to place it inline, or set a widget ID in the \"Float site-wide\" field to show it floating on every page.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<!--section=faq-->\n<dl>\n<dt id=\"does%20this%20slow%20down%20my%20site%3F\"><h3>Does this slow down my site?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>No \u2014 the script is a few kilobytes, loads deferred, and never blocks rendering or shifts layout.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"where%20do%20the%20emails%20go%3F\"><h3>Where do the emails go?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>Into your Droplark dashboard, exportable as CSV anytime.
