Oh, I see. Well, that would explain why I found it impossible to get working.
After downloading your plugin, I did read the comparison chart that you’ve linked. I was confronted with a huge list so I did a keyword search:
> layer: no hits
> popup: no hits
(Having taken a second look at the list, it turns out what I was looking for was halfway down list. I should have searched for “lightbox”. By the way, I should point out that your link to example 34 takes people to the wrong example.)
Anyway. I eventually found the example about “showing an iframe as a layer” (example 34). On that page, it’s not at all clear that the example applies only to the Pro version. I can now see at the very bottom of the page that you say “Have fun using Advanced iFrame Pro” – you need to be more explicit than this because I wasted 2 hours trying to make an example work that didn’t even apply to the free version.
“So it seems you have not looked at the demos I refer to everywhere.
Only change_parent_links_target=”xxx” and show_iframe_as_layer=”true” with the right target has to be added!”
I did see this in the example and I tried it but nothing happened. It would have been really useful to have some kind of warning like “you need Pro to do this”. I assumed I was doing something wrong so I continued to persevere. Hence my frustration.
It’s clear you’ve gone to some effort to make this plugin and it looks as though it has helped other people so we are all grateful for the effort plugin developers like you put in.
Moving forward though, my feedback would be follow then mantra “less is more” and focus on the quality of user experience rather than just quantity.
