 * Hi [@karolinauv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/karolinauv/) thanks for 
   the update. Can you help me understand the expected functionality of “on some
   pages”? I asked above but didn’t see a response to that. Thanks!

 * Hi [@karolinauv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/karolinauv/) , to answer
   your question, in Question 7 I have the “on all pages” option selected.
 * The “On selected pages” option doesn’t seem to work… the selection box is empty
   and when I CTRL-click nothing happens.
 * What does “On some pages” mean? What does it do?

 * Thanks for making this plugin available – I appreciate your work on it, and I
   continue to use it.
 * The plugin setting states “Once XX seconds after the user arrived on the site”.
   The problem is that it’s not once after the user arrives on the site. It’s many
   times after they’ve arrived on the site. If it said “Once XX seconds after the
   user arrived on the _page_” then it would be correct.
 * The current behavior is not aligned with current standards nor acceptable UX 
   of pop-ups on the web. It is going to push users away from our sites. You can
   take this as a feature request if you like, or ignore it. I’m still thankful 
   for what you’ve done!
 * Side note: can you share what the “On some pages” setting means? I don’t see 
   any documentation about that.

 * It shows only once per page, but that’s not acceptable nor standard behavior 
   for a pop-up, on any site. Imagine if you went to the BBC website and read a 
   bunch of news articles, and the same pop-up showed on _every_ page no matter 
   how many times you showed it? You would never come back!

 * Yes, I see that. But the setting I’m referring to says “Once
    xx seconds after
   the user arrived on the site”.
 * The problem is that it’s not once, it’s repeatedly, again and again. If a user
   reads several pages on my site, they will be shown the popup over and over again.
   That’s a good way to drive your users crazy and make sure they never come back.
   And that’s why most websites don’t do that 🙂
 * Is there a way to make it truly just “once”? If not, then the plugin doesn’t 
   do what’s described in this setting.
