Hi,

I want to create a pop up in my DNN webisite that the user will be able to see on first time login. Is this possible without creating a module? If yes, how?

Any help is appreciated.

That built-in funcionality is only available for cookies notification. If you need the popup for your own content, you'll have to use a module.

You can also add a popup to your skin/theme if you want, but you do need html/css knowledge for that.
I have created an Open Content (module) template before when I needed some admin settings for the pop-up.

But I don't think there's an out of the box solution.

You can activate the Show cookies consent option (Site Settings > Site Behavior) and have a popup when entering the web.

I can work with HTML and CSS.  I dont want to use a module so is my other option  to simply use JS or Jquery for one time pop up?

Yes, add your html/css to your skin.
You can use <%=Request.IsAuthenticated%> to get from DNN is the user is logged in.
You could then write a cookie to prevent the popup after the first login.
