On-site Visual Template Editor: Configure the Overlay Settings

Learn more about how to configure an on-site campaign's overlay settings for Bluecore Site™.

Updated over a week ago

Before you design a Site campaign in the Visual Template Editor (VTE), first configure the settings for the overlay screen.

Configure an overlay screen by following the below steps.

  1. Navigate to the Campaigns tab (flag icon) on the left-hand navigation.

  2. Under the Site section, select Campaigns.

  3. Open a campaign and navigate to the Message tab.

  4. Select to create new template in the Site Visual Template Editor (VTE), or edit an existing template.

  5. Then select the Settings tab.


The overlay screen contains settings that are applied to the entire campaign, but vary based on the template type (fullscreen, popup, banner/infobar, and inline). Some of these settings include defining the size of your popup or banner, background colors, animations, and delays. Overlay screen settings can be configured by using the design tab, CSS, or JavaScript.

  • TIP: When building your campaign, be sure to click Save Template in the upper right-hand corner frequently to save your work!
