Set up the tools

Install the extension and complete the Zotabox account setup. An account is created automatically and can be deleted at any time. Choose the tools you need, configure their appearance and show rules, then connect email, social, analytics, or Facebook Pixel integrations as needed. The tools need no coding for basic use; Custom CSS and Custom HTML are also available.

• Push Notifications collects subscribers and sends notifications. Contact Form Builder supports custom fields, departments, file attachments, and automatic responses.
• Facebook Live Chat supports customer conversations. Social Buttons encourage users to follow social accounts, and Social Mobile Tools provide social options for mobile visitors.

Feedback, navigation, and notices

Easy Store Locator helps customers find a business. Testimonial lets customers provide endorsements, while Social Review can display recent Facebook or Google reviews. The package also includes Notification Box, Stickers, Promo Box, Easy Banner, EU Cookie Notification, and Back to Top Buttons. Some tools support timers, coupons, custom images, or email capture fields.

Targeting and integrations

Display rules can show tools on selected pages, after a set time on site or scroll depth, or according to minimum screen size. Exit intent is available for some tools. Rules can also distinguish new and returning visitors, use display or expiry dates, and target geographic locations.

The service loads asynchronously and has a responsive, mobile-friendly design. It integrates with more than 20 email providers, including Mailchimp, Constant Contact, Aweber, GetResponse, and Campaign Monitor. Social integrations include Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, YouTube, Instagram, Pinterest, and LinkedIn. Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel integrations are available.

Plan limits and compatibility

Starter, Express, and Platinum include premium versions of the tools, multiple sites, multiple tools on the same website, no Zotabox branding, email service integration, custom CSS, custom images, and Google Analytics integration. Custom plans are also available.

The plugin works with the Ecwid Shopping Cart plugin. Manual code embedding is recommended to avoid conflicts with custom themes. The listing reports that the plugin has not been tested with the latest three major WordPress releases and may have compatibility issues with recent versions. Review each tool's display options before publishing, especially when several promotional tools are active on the same site.
