I've been Daz+ for quite some time. I am a little irritated to keep getting a popup about Daz+ on the site asking me to join. I got this even when the 40% Daz+ offer was in my cart. I got this when I was getting my Daz+ code to use in my shopping cart, so I was on a page I presume i wouldn't see if I wasn't already Daz+.
Are Daz just trying to drive me away?

I've never had this happen when I have been logged in - only when accidentally going to the site on my work profile. Have you tried checking your browser settings to see if you are blocking/restricting cookies or something?
The popup uses cookies to control when it appears. It seems to be supposed to appear once per session for users that are not logged in, and places a cookie once it appears and is closed. Logged in users are not supposed to see it.
I can confirm that I do not get the popup at all when I am logged in, and that if I browse when not logged in and get the popup, it does not come back after I close it unless I close the browser and come back still logged out.
In case it helps you with your settings, www.daz3d.com is whitlisted in my adblocker and I also allow first-party cookies for the URL (and daz3d.com) in the browser settings.
I will have a look: but it has just started happening. It is very persistent, but not on every page.
Just to add that I have cleared my Safari cache, and am logged in. For some reason I am bing signed out more than I have been, sometimes being signed in again automatically. Daz may have changed something, or Safari may have. The pop-up is a new phenomenon for me, but really irritating. It doesn't matter if it is just me (except for me, obviously), but I wondered if others were also suffering.
And just had a loop experience with this forum. I'd simply walk away if I was a new customer. So forums poor and shop an irritation. Not quite what is intended, surely?
Hmmm. Sounds like a cookie issue. Are you sure you don't have any plugins that are limiting/restricting/clearing cookies. It's been a while since I have used Safari now so I don't know much about it specifically. Have you tried Firefox/Chrome at all to see if that is a better experience?
@James_H :
I love when people will tell you it doesn't happen to them, so it might just be in your head (not stating anyone in this thread said as much, just the general mentality I have observed over a couple of decades), or you are doing something wrong...
Just to let you know it isn't just you, and I have it even worse, as I get them on every store page regardless if I am logged in or not.
However, in my case, I pretty much know what the issue is, and that there is nothing I can do about it until I can afford another USB drive and install an up-to-date operating system.
It is not a cookie issue (for me -- All cookies accepted), nor any kind of cache issue (once again, for me -- Writing this right now is equivalent to someone who just purchased a brand new PC [well, if slightly older OS was installed such as Windows 7] and ran it for the very first time, every time -- Hell, if the dog trips over my power cord [no battery] I lose everything, and if I haven't transferred downloads/saves to another USB drive, I get to start all over again [which happens a lot -- well, not the dog thing, but mainly OS just locking up by websites overloading the scarce available working memory]).
My entire OS is being run in 4G of memory from a laptop with no hard drive through USB thumb-drive with a Live Boot Linux.
My issue is the old (non-upgradeable on locked USB) Firefox 81.0.2 that all web development has left in the dust. Even Blender Artists site (discord based) has downgraded my usage to an old back-up static format.
I just deal with it. Someday I will be able to catch back up, but for now, it is just one giant pain in the azz. Especially now when I want to download two pages worth of product library content I have yet to download, and when I want to save the actual product page with images I have to wait about 6 to 7 seconds (every time) for it to show up and allow me to cancel it before I can start, because it interupts trying to download the page or images. It is a royal annoyance I wish Daz would just stop.

Good luck with solving your issue, and please, try to take comfort in the fact that someone else is experiencing this as well. There might be others yet to find this thread, or bother to comment (I avoided it for two days).
Thanks. Sorry you are having the issue. Certainly that pop-up: really getting under my skin.
Im getting this too. On almost every page I open. Takes the fun out of shopping here. It needs to be looked into because somthing is broken in some shape or form.
Glad I'm not the only one. Even worse at Rendo. On an i-pad it's quite a bit of screen space.

Unless I'm mistaken, the pop-up is an element called “#subscribePopup” It’s inherited from body so pop-up blockers and even CSS won’t work. (In Firefox anyway)
I right click & inspect element. "#subscribePopup" and set opacity from 1 to zero.
While I’m at it, I select “#newPromoHeader” and disable “Animate Repeat” -- annoying slide show (every 4 seconds = diff image) I want to just click on promotions at my leisure.
Does anyone know where (or if) DAZ customers can put in a request or suggestion that it's annoying -- please remove "#subscribePopup" ?
I am a Daz+ member since 2012, but this - beep - popup shows up on almost every page - even when I'm logged in.
Oh - I see that this popup has nothing to do with Daz+ at all, but offers me, Daz customer since 2011, a 15% discount on my first purchase! That's great, I'm very impressed... Why didn't I find out about this 11 years ago...? LOL
Daz marketing really has a great talent for making itself unpopular. Popups, as any marketer should know, are universally hated, and the ugly Freja popup was probably no exception. What does Daz? They make a new Popup which is prettier than the old one, but five times more aggressive. It jumps in your face on every page until you're ready to flee the store. And that's supposed to work?
Do you have your browser set to remove, or block, cookies?
Yes, of course I have. Please don't tell me I should accept cookies to get rid of this popup!
double post
Yes, or at least the one that marks it as seen. Cookies are not inherently evil, even if you want to block the cookies used by the companies posting ads which they can use to track you across sites there aer many others used soley within a site to enable functionallity.
Outside of cookies - not everyone wants them, or the hassle of managing one-off exceptions per website - there is a way to get rid of the pop-ups on Daz's website that has worked for me. My machine is set to clear cookies every time I close the browser, but I never see those pop-ups anymore.
1. Add an ad blocker extension to your browser. I use AdBlockPlus in Firefox and Chrome. If you don't know how to do this, I suggest googling "how to add an extension to [your browser name]". Chrome has quick and simple instructions, Firefox makes it look complicated but is basically the same as Chrome.
2. Go to any Daz page and load the pop-up.
3. Go to your adblocker in the toolbar and select "Block element."
4. Hover your mouse over the pop-up until it highlights the ENTIRE thing (not just a piece of it). Click on it while highlighted, and the whole thing should disappear forever - or at least until it is recoded to something different, then you'll just need to do this once again.
NOTE: If you don't have the entire pop-up highlighted when you block that element, only one small piece of it will disappear. You can repeat the steps to block the thing piece by piece if you'd like, same end result, but just more annoying.
Thank you, Richard and Phoenix Knight!
I use DuckDuckGo, which is very particular about cookies and trackers. I'll try out whether your tip also works with DDG, Phoenix Knight.
Of course, it would be best if the customer didn't have to fiddle with his browser, but that Daz had his pop-ups programmed so that they disappear (like the awful Freja) when you log in. In this case, the ingenious programmer(s) can assume that you are already a customer and can no longer claim the 15% discount anyway...
If you have scripts enabled in general then you are making yourself far more trackable than you would with cookies - and far harder for utlities to cover your tracks by selective deletions.
