You can choose between a simple sign up form and the graphic lead generator. Both can be customized and added to your site’s sidebar.
NOTE: The Spokal Graphic Lead Generator Widget is a two-step sign up form, so you need to create a Popup form that you’re going to use when your visitors click on the widget. You can create and customize your Popup from the Spokal plugin page > CTAs > Popups.
To add the Spokal sidebar widgets:
1. Log in to your WordPress site and go to Appearance > Widgets
2. Choose the Spokal widget you wish to add and select where you want to place it on your site
3. Once it’s added, click on the widget on the right to customize it
Spokal Lead Generator
If you chose the Spokal Lead Generator, click on the Customize button to change the look of your form and the text you want it to display.
Additionally, you can select a list where you want to send the leads who sign up using this form from the drop down menu.
Spokal Graphic Lead Generator
Once you’ve added the graphic lead generator widget, click on it to open it for customizing.
Create or upload an image that you want to use as your call to action.
Choose the popup form that you want to use when your visitors click on the image.
Save the changes, and you’re all set!
Focuses
With the graphic lead widget, you have one advanced option if you’re using focuses in Spokal. You can choose to show a different image (call to action) on posts that are tagged with a specific focus.
To do that, click on the upload or create with Canva button to add a new image.
When you’re done, click on the ‘Focus’ dropdown and select one from the list.
And now, this widget will only show on posts that have the same focus!
