JavaScript event
Fire on any action your site reports that the standard triggers don't cover.
What it is
JavaScript event, in plain words.
JavaScript event shows your popup when your site fires a custom DOM event you name: a login, a filter change, a step in your own checkout.
Use it when the moment you care about isn't covered by the other five triggers.
Your code fires the event with the exact name you entered, on the document or the html element, and the popup appears.
Key benefits
Why it earns its place.
Any moment your site knows about.
If your code can tell, your popup can react.

Add as many event names as you need; any one of them opens the popup.
