 * Hi [@lisawang123](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lisawang123/),
 * unfortunately that’s not possible. The href should always be `#` while the class
   works as the trigger element for the popup.

 * What’s the reason for not using the class?
 * I’m trying to understand what you’re trying to achieve so maybe I can help 🙂

 * Thanks for trying to help!
    If you go on our site, under the practices, there
   are 12 blocks. [https://caravanwellness.com/](https://caravanwellness.com/)
 * If you click on one block, for example “Mindfulness”, ideally we want to use 
   your popup video.
 * The problem is that this is a custom section our previous developer build for
   us. we can only put in the Grid link(The target URL for the grid service) on 
   the back end.
 * Maybe there is a way to write the url differently, which can make the popup video
   work.
    Let me know if this makes sense to you, if not, I can share with you a
   screenshot.

 * Ahh, I understand.
 * Thanks for clarification! 🙂
 * So none of those would actually link to a different page is that correct? They
   should all open a different video?
 * To accomplish that, someone would have to look into the code and make it possible
   for you to add a class to each of the blocks/boxes.
 * The plugin is not designed to trigger a video popup based on a link click (href
   value).
 * We may actually be able to help you with this, you can send me a message here–

 * I have a very similar problem on InternetTop40.com. My Video’s (or any item) 
   are put into a list by the snax plugin which creates a main post with each video/
   item in a separate sub-post item called a snax item that way people can add items
   to the list from the frontend or vote on the items as they move up and down in
   rank by the votes. Needless to say I usually make the first video a playlist 
   of all the videos. SO I would like it to popup but I dont know where or how to
   add the css trigger? Not to mention can we have more than 1 on a page or just
   make them all sticky popups? Any Advice?

 * I’m afraid that adding a class to the preferred trigger element is mandatory 
   for the plugin to function.
