 * I’ve tried following the posts about having the pop-up window close on form submit.
   This seems like it should be a simple ting as that would be the common way I 
   imagine the thing would be needed – so I can’t see where I am going off with 
   it
    the site is [](http://workasamodel.com)
 * the form is a constant contact form – I don’t see any mention of it anywhere 
   so I am hoping it isn’t the problem but something I’m soing worn
 * thanks

 * Never mind – I changed to constant contact newsletter plugin – deleted all the
   js stuff and it seems to be doing what it’s supposed to –
    thanks anyway.

 * Yes – I just posted again – I think i have the following issues:
    When the site
   is visited the pop window opens -good. When data is submitted form closes – good–
 * But if no data is submitted the pop-up window stays closed –
    is it possible 
   to have the window open – when user goes to another page or refreshes browser?
 * thanks

 * [@michaelsoaries](https://wordpress.org/support/users/michaelsoaries/) – Sounds
   like your cookies are set up incorrectly. Likely “On Popup Open”, when what you
   really wanted was to set the cookie when the form was submitted. Then your popup
   would continue to open until they submit the form.
 * Alternatively you could use Forced Interaction to disable the close button and
   force them to fill the form.
 * Hope that helps.

 * THanks for the reply.
    That’s probably it. I don’t seem to be able to set the
   cookies right – I tried following the forum posts but I got even more confused.
   Let me see if I can map out what I need –
 * So when visitor comes to the site the pop-up opens.
    Each page they visit it 
   opens again.
 * if they submit data it closes and should stay closed. regardless if they surf
   the site – unless they clear browser cache which gets rid of the cookies and 
   they get a new session so to speak.
 * I don’t think a forced interaction would be the way – although having it open
   each page seems like a poke enough –
 * ok so how do I get to on submit when it’s not in the drop down boxes as a choice?
 * thanls

 * Hi Michael,
 * We have two wonderful docs on cookies that should help clear up any confusion:
 * [Cookies Introduction](http://docs.wppopupmaker.com/article/148-cookies)
 * [Using Triggers and Cookies Together](http://docs.wppopupmaker.com/article/165-using-triggers-and-cookies-together)
 * Hope this helps!

 * Hey thanks for getting back –
    I’ve read them and for the life of me I get confused
   by them.

 * [@michaelsoaries](https://wordpress.org/support/users/michaelsoaries/) – You 
   don’t want a cookie on open / close, you want to set one on form submit. You 
   need to create a Manual JS cookie then set it on form submit.
 * The second link Walt posted above has the info you need for this. Scroll down
   to the section about forms & the section with code examples just below that. 
   One of those should get you to the finish line.
