 * This probably is a stupid question but I don’t have the slightest clue what to
   put in at “Button link”. I understand that this is the link you need to go to……
   where ever? Can you give me a hint? What do I need to do to get this thing up
   and running? I have a chimpmail account.
 * Thanks!

 * Hey [@umptata](https://wordpress.org/support/users/umptata/).
 * Hope you’re doing well 🙂
 * If you fill in both “Button Label” and “Button Link” fields it will create new
   button at the bottom of your popup that will redirect to desired URL.
 * I’m not sure what are you trying to setup here so could you provide me with some
   more info?
    By chimpmail are you referring to MailChimp service? Are you using
   some kind of plugin for this?
 * Looking forward to your response 🙂
 * Cheers,
    Predrag

 * Thank you Predrag for your kind reply. I think my problem is that I have a wrong
   understanding of what Popup can do and what not. It might simply be the wrong
   plugin for my purposes.
    I want to have a popup window where subscribers can 
   fill in a field with their email and then push the submit button and then their
   address is sent to my Mailchimp list.
 * I understand that the button only leads to a page where they can then so what
   I want them to do, but I want them to subscribe directly.
 * I have Mailchimp for WP installed but that doesn’t do the job either. Their suggested
   form is so very ugly that I simply can’t force myself to use it. And paying $
   29 month is totally oversized for my kind of business. I know how to add the 
   suggested popup from Mailchimp to my site, but this is far too “aggressive” for
   my typical clients with popping up after 3 seconds and no way to prolong it .
   This way I will loose subscribers, rather than win them…. They need to have a
   chance to read first before getting hit by a popup window.
 * So, the kind of window you offer is absolutely perfect, it looks great, works
   well but as mentioned obviously isn’t the right thing for me.
 * Right now I have the Jetpack widget on my blog page for subscriptions and that
   works fine but I want the subscribers in mailchimp that I can send out a newsletter
   at a later point. Maybe you can recommend a working and well designed alternative
   for my purposes? Thank you!

 * So PopUp can display popup, but subscription for has to came from other plugin.
   Like this one Easy Forms for MailChimp by YIKES (it has shortcodes that you can
   place inside popup).
    In each popup setting in “When to show the PopUp:” you 
   can set after how many seconds it will show in “Appear after” so it can be more
   than 3 seconds.
 * There is few mailchimp plugins you would need to test – but you should look one
   that has shotcodes avaliable (you can insert shortcode into popup).
    Each plugin
   will have different form – and sometimes it will depend on your theme CSS how
   form will look like. Some themes have very strong styles and they can override
   CSS for plugin forms – in those cases customization is required.
 * kind regards,
    Kasia
