Demo<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\nCreate high-converting popups, slide-in panels, and responsive navigation drawers inside the WordPress block editor (Gutenberg) with ease.<\/p>\n\n
OffCanvas \/ Drawer is a lightweight, performance-optimized WordPress popup plugin<\/strong> and Gutenberg popup<\/strong> builder. It allows you to design custom OffCanvas menus<\/strong>, drawer menus<\/strong>, side panels, and interactive popups that slide in or fade in from any viewport direction: left, right, top, or bottom.<\/p>\n\nWhether you need a sleek mobile menu<\/strong>, a WooCommerce cart drawer<\/strong>, an exit intent popup<\/strong> to recover abandoned carts, custom slide-out contact forms, site announcements, or an interactive help desk\u2014this plugin does it all without requiring you to write a single line of code.<\/p>\n\nBuilt Natively for Gutenberg (Block Editor)<\/h3>\n\n
Designed specifically for the block editor, it supports full InnerBlocks integration. You can drop any Gutenberg block (paragraphs, images, headings, contact forms, navigation blocks, or custom widgets) directly inside the slide-in panel<\/strong>. It also features a built-in shortcode generator, allowing you to save layouts as templates and embed them anywhere on your website using a simple shortcode.<\/p>\n\nSmart Behavior, Triggers & Targeting<\/h3>\n\n
Go beyond basic popups. Trigger drawers based on visitor actions like scroll depth, time delay, user inactivity, element visibility, or exit intent. With advanced targeting rules, you can display or hide popups on specific pages, target specific user roles, and schedule marketing campaigns with timezone-aware start and end dates.<\/p>\n\n
Dedicated Analytics Dashboard<\/h3>\n\n
Track how your floating popups<\/strong> and slide menus<\/strong> perform. The built-in Analytics dashboard measures impressions, conversions, and conversion rates, giving you the insights you need to optimize your layout and strategy.<\/p>\n\nSilky-Smooth Animations & Device Optimization<\/h3>\n\n
Provide a premium user experience with responsive positioning (e.g., a slide-in side panel on desktop, and a mobile bottom sheet on phones), touch\/swipe gesture controls, and independent opening and closing transition effects. Add a modern backdrop blur filter to keep your content in focus.<\/p>\n\n
The plugin is fully responsive, SEO-friendly, exceptionally lightweight, and built to integrate seamlessly with any WordPress theme.<\/p>\n\n
