OptinMonster makes it easy to create and display a Slide-In scroll box campaign on your site. These campaigns are a great way to convert visitors without disrupting their browsing experience.
In this article, you’ll learn how to create a Slide-In campaign.
Before You Begin
Here are some things to know before you begin:
- Because Slide-in campaigns are permanently attached to the bottom of the screen, we recommend hiding them on small screens like mobile phones and instead, show a mobile-only popup campaign to your mobile website traffic.
Create Slide-In Campaign
A Slide-In campaign scrolls up from the bottom right corner of the page, offering a subtler offer to your visitors. Slide-In campaigns are often used to redirect visitors to related content, prompting visitors to subscribe to a newsletter, or offering a discount.
To create a Slide-In campaign, follow these steps:
- From the Campaigns screen, select the Create New Campaign button.
- From the modal, select Templates as the type of campaign you’d like to create.
- On the next screen, select Slide-in as the campaign type.
- You can filter, sort, and search from available Slide-in campaign templates.
- Hover over any template in the list to Preview or Use Template to select it and open the campaign builder.
- Once you’ve selected a campaign you’ll be prompted to give it a name and assign it to a site in your account.
Select the Start Building button to create the campaign and open it in the builder to customize.
- You can now configure and customize your campaign in the builder, be sure to Save the changes as you work.

Troubleshooting
I’m having trouble closing my Slide-In campaign on mobile devices.
Visitors may have difficulty accessing the close button on a Slide-In campaign if the content in the campaign causes the campaign to be taller than the available screen space. This is because Slide-In campaigns are always anchored to the bottom of the browser screen, rather than floating in the middle of the screen like a popup campaign.
If this is happening with your Slide-In campaign, we recommend adding the “Visitor’s Device” Display Rule to exclude showing the campaign on mobile devices. Then, use a Mobile Optimized Popup which can be scrolled to view all content if needed.
