I like that there’s a question on the metrics. Something we discourse community admins should do more of.
Unfortunately, it seems the change was pretty negligible.
3.5% increase in registrations from May to July. 327 (July) vs 317 (May). No noticeable impact in PVs per user. Average daily logged in users also went up 2.5%.
I’d be interested in playing around as a variable on how long it takes before showing the overlay. And knowing how many users start the registration process (via Google Analytics event tracking perhaps)
