Open a modal window instead of overtaking the current window/tab (8 posts)

    Hello David, thanks for putting together a simplified sharing plugin for WordPress. I appreciate it.

    At the risk of sounding silly, is there a way to get this to open in a modal window instead the opening up the sharing service in the current window/tab?

    Thanks again!

    Yes! There is a parameter of "TARGET". Simply set this to, say, "_blank" to get it to launch in a new tab/window.

    It worked for Facebook or Twitter but not Google+, re: using "target=_blank". I had to create a separate call without the "target=_blank" for Google+. I think Google+ fails because the URL is not being processed correctly.

    <?php echo simple_social_bookmarks('','','','default=off&target=_blank&facebook=on&twitter=on'); ?>
    <?php echo simple_social_bookmarks('','','','default=off&googleplus=on'); ?>

    My working prototype: http://clients.donnavitan.com/gem/dev/

    This is a good solution for now. But is it possible to target a modal window instead? I suspect I'll have to build that myself.

    Cheers,
    Donna

    I don't have any intention, at the moment, to use a modal window.

    Will you make it in the Future? Maybe in the next update?

    The blank solution is not really good. A popup would be nicer =)

    After my previous response I looked into it and I've already added it to the roadmap...

    The Bookmark option is in the next release which I'm working on.

    However, as all of my plugin development is done in my (increasingly limited) spare time, I can't put a date to it. I'm also updating 2 others at the moment and looking at a re-design of my website (as well as still writing posts for it). So it may not be for a short while :)

    David.
