Plugin Description

SantaPress is a WordPress Advent Calendar Plugin that makes it easy for you to provide an individual advent calendar on your website to surprise your visitors every day with a small gift until Christmas. Provided with 8 layouts and many great features (such as many customization options, snowfall, hidden mode etc.), this plugin makes your visitors want to come back every day.

Plugin Features:

  • Open doors as single pages, modal windows (popup), external links or link directly to WooCommerce products (if you have the WooCommerce plugin installed).
  • Choose between automatic modal layouts (each calendar layout brings its own modal layout) or customize the modal (easily change width, add a solid background color or a gradient, add a snowflake pattern or a Santa hat).
  • Quiz – Each door can have its own trivia. Further SantaPress integrates with the popular Contact Form 7 plugin which you can use to show a contact form after an answer is correct. Further you can set correct and incorrect responses either globally or individually on each door.
  • 8 beautiful layouts with 25 door images each. That makes a total of 200 door images to choose from.
  • Use your own layout and upload your own door images.
  • Set the number of days for your calendar so you can decide whether you need 24 doors, 25 doors or any other number.
  • Hidden Mode – which initially hides the calendar and lets the calendar slide in after a preset amount of time or by using custom CSS triggers.
  • SantaPress Snowfall.
  • Use multiple calendars on your site.
  • Add custom Javascript for each door (e.g. tracking codes).
  • Click Tracking: Track your clicks for each door for logged-out users only and logged-in users (except administrators).
  • More options available (Preview mode, Show/hide titles, Shuffle doors, Disable past doors).
  • Custom CSS.
  • Responsive and Retina/HiDPI.
  • WPMU compatible.
  • WPML compatible.
  • GDPR conform: The plugin doesn’t load any external scripts, everything is within the plugin. Tracking mode only tracks clicks and no IP addresses.
  • Clean and commented code.
