The Elementor Popup is a great feature found in Elementor Pro. You can easily turn it into an effective marketing tool, lead capture tool, and so much more. One feature that's missing though, is the ability to associate text (specifically in the Text Editor) as a trigger for a Popup.
This tutorial will help you to achieve this WITHOUT any additional plugins.
** One thing to note, is that we have noticed that Elementor has a habit of renaming the link URL associated with popups. This method will require you to check the link(s) after Elementor updates and possibly update URL or it will stop working since it's not linked by Elementor by dynamic data. Unfortunately we have no control over this and honestly Elementor should include this feature anyways so users don't have to work around a shortcoming.
