Add Native Promotional Pop-ups (Announcement Campaigns) for Customer Communities

Many community managers need a way to proactively highlight important content without relying solely on homepage banners or featured topics.

I'd like to see a native Promotional Pop-up (or Announcement Campaign) feature that allows administrators to display a customizable modal dialog to visitors when they enter the community or specific pages.

Examples include:

• Promoting annual customer conferences (such as Ignite)
• Announcing product launches or major releases
• Highlighting webinars and live events
• Driving awareness of new documentation or training
• Sharing important service announcements
• Welcoming first-time visitors

Desired functionality

Administrators should be able to configure:

• Rich text editor with images and branding
• Primary and secondary call-to-action buttons
• Display delay (for example, after 2–5 seconds)
• Frequency controls
  • Once per session
  • Once per day
  • Once per week
  • Until dismissed
• Page targeting
  • Homepage only
  • Specific product pages
  • Knowledge Base
  • Forums
  • Entire community
• Audience targeting using Segments
• Start and end dates
• Mobile-responsive layout
• Optional analytics showing:
  • Impressions
  • Dismissals
  • Click-through rate
  • Conversions

Today, many communities have to build this functionality using custom HTML/CSS/JavaScript widgets, which requires development effort and ongoing maintenance. A native solution would make it much easier for community managers to launch professional announcement campaigns without writing code.

This would complement existing Topic Banners and Featured Topics by providing a more attention-grabbing way to communicate high-priority announcements while giving administrators fine-grained control over when and where they appear.
