Overview

About this plugin

This plugin detects if the user’s browser has AdBlock software activated and displays a popup if this is the case (screenshot 1). The popup is 100% customizable.

In addition, the aggressiveness of this popup is adjustable:

-

LEVEL 1: The popup will inform the user that blocking ads kills your buisness model and invites them to deactivate their adblocker. The message will only be displayed once every x minutes/hours/days, as long as the user has Adblock software activated, but the user can close the popup and continue browsing your site normally (even with Adblock activated)

-

LEVEL 2: The popup will inform the user that blocking ads kills your buisness model and invites him to deactivate his adblocker. The message will appear on each page load, as long as the user has Adblock software activated, however the user can each time close the popup and continue browsing your site normally (even with Adblock activated)

-

LEVEL 3: The popup will inform the user that blocking ads kills your buisness model and invites them to deactivate their adblocker. The message will appear on each page load, and the user will not be able to navigate on your site as long as he has Adblock software activated.

This plugin is 100% Responsive and compatible with PC – Mac – Tablets and Smartphones on iOS – Android – Windows. It is compatible with Edge, Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari browsers.

You can also easily customize the popup message and the close button in the setting page of this plugin (screenshot 2). It’s up to you to find the right words to make the Internet user feel guilty by adapting the message to your audience.

This plugin is by default in English and French. But as you can customize the text in the admin, you can adapt the popup in the language of your choice.

⭐ PREMIUM VERSION ⭐

/////// IN FRENCH ////

Ce plugin détecte si le navigateur de l’internaute a un logiciel AdBlock d’activé et affiche une popup si c’est le cas (screenshot 1). La popup est 100% customisable.

De plus, l’agressivité de cette popup est réglable:

-

NIVEAU 1: La popup informera l’internaute que bloquer les publicités tue votre buisness model et l’invite à désactiver son adblocker. Le message ne s’affichera qu’une fois tous les x minutes/heures/jours, tant que l’internaute aura un logiciel Adblock activé, mais l’internaute pourra fermer la popup et continuer à naviguer sur votre site normalement (même avec Adblock activé)

-

NIVEAU 2: La popup informera l’internaute que bloquer les publicités tue votre buisness model et l’invite à désactiver son adblocker. Le message s’affichera à chaque chargement de page, tant que l’internaute aura un logiciel Adblock activé, cependant l’internaute pourra à chaque fois fermer la popup et continuer à naviguer sur votre site normalement (même avec Adblock activé)

-

NIVEAU 3: La popup informera l’internaute que bloquer les publicités tue votre buisness model et l’invite à désactiver son adblocker. Le message s’affichera à chaque chargement de page, et l’internaute ne pourra pas naviguer sur votre site tant qu’il aura un logiciel Adblock activé.

Ce plugin est 100% Responsive et compatible PC – Mac – Tablettes et Smartphones sous iOS – Android – Windows. Il est compatible avec les navigateurs Edge, Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari.

Vous pourrez par ailleurs personnaliser très facilement le message de la popup ainsi que le bouton de fermeture dans la page de réglage de ce plugin (screenshot 2). A vous de trouver les bons mots pour faire culpabiliser l’internaute en adaptant le message à votre public.

Ce plugin est par défaut en Anglais et en Français. Mais comme vous pouvez personnaliser le texte dans l’admin, vous pourrez donc adapter la popup dans la langue de votre choix.

⭐ PREMIUM VERSION ⭐

Vous en avez marre de voir vos bannières masquées par Adblock? Avec le mode PREMIUM, paramétrez dans un shortcode ou dans un widget en 30 secondes: l’url de la publicité, l’url de l’image ( et en option ses dimensions, sa balise alt, sa façon de s’ouvrir, si l’url sera cloaké ou non) pour passer à travers Adblock.

La bannière publicitaire sera stocké sur votre serveur et sera mise à jour toutes les 24H pour être toujours en adéquation avec les offres de l’annonceur, et ne jamais devenir une vieille bannière has-been!
