Delay a jquery plugin by seconds, scroll y or exit intent

Every time I ask a question here, no matter how dumb it is, I do always learn something.
Anyway, I'm hoping to get some more good answers to this one.
I'm calling a jquery plugin for a modal on document.ready
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
// Initialize the plugin
$('#JPO').popup({
absolute: false,
autoopen: true
});
$.fn.popup.defaults.pagecontainer = '#page'
});
</script>
it auto opens a modal but I only want the modal to open after either a user scrolls down 400px, or after being on the page for 5 seconds, or on exit (exit intent).
This is the jquery plugin I'm using: https://dev.vast.com/jquery-popup-overlay/
Thanks so much in advance!

use setTimeout() function.
Read More about setTimeout
Sample Code:
setTimeout(
function()
{
//do something special
}, 5000);

I used a combination of setTimeout, and onmouseleave to create my popup.
<script>
function openPopup(){
$('#JPO').popup({
autoopen: true,
detatch: true,
transition: 'all 1.0s'
});
};
function exitPopup(){
$('#JPO').popup('show');
};
function cookiePopup(){
$('#JPO').popup({
autoopen: false,
detatch: true,
transition: 'all 1.0s'
});
};
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.modal-content').hide();
var dialogShown = Cookies.get('dialogShown');
if (!dialogShown) {
setTimeout(openPopup, {{ section.settings.delay }});
$(document).mouseleave(function(){
setTimeout(exitPopup,1050)
});
Cookies.set('dialogShown', 1, { expires: 1 });
}
else {
setTimeout(cookiePopup, {{ section.settings.delay }});
}
});
</script>
I also used a plugin called js-cookie to make my pop-up less annoying to repeat visitors.
PS. this is for a shopify section, so it does contain some liquid.

jQuery hide and show effect seen at function end

Consider the following code:
<div id="thediv" >hola</div>
<button id="resharper">button</button>
with javascript/jQuery:
$("button").on( 'click', function() {
$("#thediv").show();
alert('click');
});
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#thediv").hide();
})
I want the behavior to first show the div tag and then display the alert "Click". Instead the behavior works in the opposite way. Alert text is first displayed followed by the button being visible. Am i missing something ?
Can i modify the code somehow to get the desired behavior where the div is first displayed and then alert text is flashed.

Check that in jQuery.show(options) allows you to pass a PlainObject options.
And than you can use complete: A function that is called once the animation on an element is complete.
Code:
$("button").on( 'click', function() {
$("#thediv").show({
complete: function() {
alert('click');
}
});
});
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#thediv").hide();
})
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="thediv" >hola</div>
<button id="resharper">button</button>
with javascript/jQuery:

It's because the alert() blocks the UI thread from updating, and that thread has not yet had time to show the element in the DOM before you call the alert().
Ideally you should use console.log() for debugging, however you can avoid this issue by putting the alert() in a setTimeout() with a very short delay.
$("button").on( 'click', function() {
$("#thediv").show();
setTimeout(function() {
alert('click');
}, 10);
});
#thediv { display: none; }
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="thediv" >hola</div>
<button id="resharper">button</button>
with javascript/jQuery:

$("button").on('click', function() {
$("#thediv").show("slow", callback);
});
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#thediv").hide();
})
function callback() {
alert('click');
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="thediv">hola</div>
<button id="resharper">button</button>
Add parameter to .show()

Javascript and jquery in same page conflict

I am using javascript and Jquery in same page.
Some thing is preventing JQuery from working properly
I tried using $jq = jQuery.noConflict(); it is not solving.
My code
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/dropmenu.js"></script>
<script src="js/beaverslider.js"></script>
<script src="js/beaverslider-effects.js"></script>
<script>
$jq = jQuery.noConflict();
$jq(document).ready(function($){
$("#nav-one").dropmenu();
});
</script>
<script>
$(function(){
var slider = new BeaverSlider({
structure: {
container: {
id: "my-slider",
width: 1000,
height: 200
}
},
content: {
images: [
"images/banner01.png",
"images/banner02.png"
]
},
animation: {
effects: effectSets["fadeSet"],
interval: 4000
}
});
});
</script>
Problem
javascript code was image fade effect and jquery code was menu dropdown effect.
when menudrop down appears, i was not able to click the dropdown menu link and when image fades dropdown menu also fades.
Please help me to find soln.

After calling $jq = jQuery.noConflict(); $ is no longer a reference to jQuery.
In second script use either $jq or jQuery instead of $.

using yep/nope with document.ready

I am using yepnope.js but having a slight issue with on load loading a function
in the head i include yep nope and make a call to the relevant js file
<script type="text/javascript" src="/code/trunk/javascript/external/modernizr/modernizr-development.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/code/trunk/javascript/external/yepnope.1.5.3-min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
yepnope({
test: Modernizr.mq('only all and (max-width: 700px)'),
yep: ['/templates/client/jquery/qff/plugin.mobile.js'],
nope:['/templates/client/jquery/qff/plugin.website.js']
});
</script>
and then at the bottom of the page
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function()
{
jQuery("#mainContent").setupQantas({
startSlide: 1,
googleAnalytics:1,
googleCode:""
});
});
</script>
so i am looking at this on a main screen. so it's suppoed to call in plugin.mobile.js
in the plugin.mobile.js file
(function( $ ){
$.fn.setupQantas = function( options ) {
// Create some defaults, extending them with any options that were provided
var settings = $.extend( {
startSlide: 1,
googleAnalytics:0, // 1 sends to google
googleCode: ""
}, options);
var methods = {};
return this.each(function() {
if (settings.startSlide === 1) {
alert("slide = 1");
} else {
alert("slide > 1");
}
});
};
})( jQuery );// JavaScript Document
instead of giving the alert slide 1 it has the error
jQuery("#mainContent").setupQantas is not a function
if i dont use yepnope and just have it in a script tag it works. There seems to be a delay on when the yepnope loads in the js file and doesnt seem to do before doc.ready
is there a way around this?
thanks

Yes there is a delay. That's all the point behind an asynchronous script loader.
You should use a callback after the script is loaded by yepnope. Check the complete and callback options.

here is the code
<script type="text/javascript">
yepnope({
test: Modernizr.mq('only all and (max-width: 700px)'),
yep: ['/templates/client/jquery/qff/mobile.js'],
nope:['/templates/client/jquery/qff/website.js'],
complete: function () {
jQuery("#mainContent").setupQantas({
startSlide: 1,
googleAnalytics:1,
googleCode:""
});
}
});
</script>

Pass Parameter to jQuery function

I'm using jQuery Tools (http://jquerytools.org/) and cannot get the below function to accept a passed parameter. I'm not proficient in javascript or jquery and cannot find a solution anywhere that will make this work for the below code. Thank you for any help!
Current setup:
<a href='javascript:popup();'>Text Link That Calls Below Function</a>
<script>
function popup() {
if ($("#facebox").hasClass("init")) {
$("#facebox").overlay().load();
}
else {
$("#facebox").addClass("init");
$("#facebox").overlay({
// custom top position
top: 260,
mask: { color: '#838383',
loadSpeed: 200,
opacity: 0.5
},
closeOnClick: true,
load: true
});
}
}
</script>
I would like it to do something like this...
<a href='javascript:popup(apples);'>Text Link That Calls Below Function</a>
<script>
function popup(choosebox) {
if ($("#choosebox").hasClass("init")) {
$("#choosebox").overlay().load();
}
else {
$("#choosebox").addClass("init");
$("#choosebox").overlay({
// custom top position
top: 260,
mask: { color: '#838383',
loadSpeed: 200,
opacity: 0.5
},
closeOnClick: true,
load: true
});
}
}
</script>

You need to pass a string as an arguement, unless you have a variable named apple defined above (var apples; ). Try changing it like below,
<a href='javascript:popup("apples");'>Text Link That Calls Below Function</a>
Note the quotes surrounding the popup("apples")
Since you are using jQuery, you can do it nicely like below,
HTML:
<a href='javascript:void(0)' class="aLink" >Text Link That Calls Below Function</a>
JS:
$(function () {
$('.aLink').click(function () {
popup("apples");
});
});
Also I think you may need to change your selector like below,
function popup(choosebox) {
var $choosebox = $("#" + choosebox);
if ($choosebox.hasClass("init")) {
$choosebox.overlay().load();
}
else {
$choosebox.addClass("init");
$choosebox.overlay({
//..rest of your code

The unobtrusive javascript approach is generally considered better and the JQuery way.
$('a.someclass').click(function() { popup('orange'); });
Providing you give your <a> element has a class of "someclass" in this example.
This keeps your js seperate from your html. That code could go in document ready event:
$(document).ready(function() {
// code here
});

Write a click event for a class on that anchor, then determine which "box" is related to that link by reading a data- attribute. This will give you a generic, reusable block of jQuery code that can be called by any anchor tag matching this pattern.
HTML:
Text Link That Calls Below Function
JavaScript:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('a.popup').on('click', function(e){
var $_target = $('#' + $(this).data("choosebox"));
if ($_target.hasClass("init"){
$_target.overlay().load();
} else {
$_target.overlay().load({
top: 260,
mask: { color: '#838383',
loadSpeed: 200,
opacity: 0.5 },
closeOnClick: true,
load: true
});
}
e.preventDefault();
});
});
