Load popup from Visual Composer button link field

Never mind. Got this to work with custom ID.

Hi, how did you get it to work?

Hi there

First – in the popup you want to use, give it a CSS Selector using ID (not class). See https://prnt.sc/bolv84

Second, on your Visual Composer button leave the Link field empty and place your CSS Selector (the ID) in the ID field. See https://prnt.sc/bolutr

Then it just works.

Thank you

@todd, @sherissa_r – Check out method #3 of our Click Triggers doc. Seems like the best approach we know of for VC users and users of similar plugins where you can’t add classes to buttons.

Hope that helps simplify things in the future.

PS In the very new future (v1.4.14) you won’t even have to add the extra selector, we are including all links with the correct hash link as trigger by default, just like adding the .popmake-# classes now.

Please take a moment to click that it Works and to rate and review the plugin or support.

@todd – Appreciate you stepping in with a solution. We love it when our users can get there faster than we can :).

I’m not sure that this is the place for this issue, but here goes.
While using popup maker I did a popup (on click) to the right primary side bar, using a text widget. This is the code… <a href="#" class="popmake-783">Contact Us</a>

It works, however on the left secondary side bar, I have a custom menu setup called Pages. I noticed that now Pages has the same popup when I click it.

I think it has something to do with the href=# because when I hover over each one they both exhibit the # in the bottom of the browser, therefor pulling up the popup when clicked. Is there a way to code in something to differentiate the code in the text box from the menu Pages? There is no link to my site because I am working off of localhost.

I’m not sure I understand what you’re referring to in terms of the new feature coming to v1.4.14. Can you explain further?

Also, when should we expect v1.4.14?

Thanks,
Todd

@crabhappy – Sounds like something else entirely. If you just added the class to one link then it should only work on that link. We don’t target anything with links by default.

A link would help.

@todd – v1.4.14 should be out within the next week or so, sorry been working on a new website for Popup Maker.

The new feature I mentioned is similar to our popmake-123 type classes. Currently adding those classes to any element makes that element a click trigger for popup 123. The new feature will also automatically look for links with #popmake-123 as well as elements with the popmake-123 class.

This is useful for VC style buttons where they allow you to enter a link but not a class.

Basically you won’t have to add the a[href= part to your click trigger it will do that by default. Hope that helps.

Hope that helps.

Daniel – we have an open ticket on your support system with issues still happening. Can you get back to us?
