    I’ve tried to set up a simple test pop up to see how it would look and can’t seem to get it to work. Below is the information you request for assistance.

    Url – test.walnuthillcc.org/derby-campus-3/
    Click on pastoral greeting in the dark grey box.
    That should create a pop up with the campus pastor’s greeting.
    It does nothing.
    That is created using the following code in a table row <td> Pastoral
    Greeting
    </td>

    The two classes listed are popmake-1853 and popmake-test

    Hey Pastor Walt,

    Ok i see your link has the correct setup. The problem seems to be that your popup isn’t loaded for this page.

    When editing the popup you have to set what pages it will be available on. To do this look for the options panel called Targeting Conditions. Here you have options that will make it available on the entire site, all pages or even one specific page.

    To test quickly you can enable it sitewide using the On Entire Site option, then refresh that test page and try the link again. Will be a good indicator if that is in fact the issue.

    Another alternative depending on how you plan to utilize the popups, for instance if you have 20 pastors and each needs a unique message in the popup, you could use our inline [popup shortcodes instead of creating them under popups.

    This allows you to edit the popup content in the same editor you manage your pages content.

    Our user guide is being written as we speak and will include this example:

    Your class for pastoral greeting could be popmake-pastoral-greeting and in the editor for that page use our shortcode as follows
    [popup id=”pastoral-greeting” size=”small”]Greeting Message goes here[/popup].

    This will generate the popup inline and it doesn’t have to be created ahead of time.

    Yet another possibility for easy management would be creating your own custom shortcode that displays a custom meta field for the current page. So when editing a pastor you would have an extra field for pastoral greeting. You would then create a custom shortcode [pastoral_greeting] which would show the current pastor pages greeting when called. Now you make one popup, insert that shortcode and make it load on all pastor pages, as well as making all greeting links use the same id.

    There are even further more advanced ways but those should give you the idea.

    I got the greeting to appear by just selecting site wide which will do for testing and determining the look of the window. I can work on making it more restrictive later. Thank you for your quick response.

    This looks like what I’m looking for. Thank you for the suggesting various ways to present the greeting.

    I will play with it some more to get the exact look I’m interested in book this looks very encouraging. Looking forward to the more comprehensive documentation as well.

    Thanks again!

    P. W.

    Hey Pastor,

    Likely your using a custom post type for your pastors, so to get it more precise we need to add your CPT to the list of supported post types that Popup Maker uses.

    This can currently be done via filter, but v1.1 RC1 is done and has admin options that allow you to select which Post Types to support.

    v1.1 is scheduled for release tomorrow.

    Just wanted to update you and let you know that v1.1 was released. It added a couple new features that may be of interest to you.

    Be sure to mark this resolved if you have no further questions pertaining to this issue.
