Hi Michele,
There’s no reason the form can’t appear in a modal or anywhere else. The form is in a modal in the backend, for adding/editing bookings.
It’s hard for me to guess at the problem. Can you send a link with more details about what’s not working, and where and how you’re adding a shortcode to the modal?
Hello Nate,
Here’s a link to the page:
http://www.chitarragustosa.com/
I’d like to add the reservation form I’ve already created to a modal so it opens when the “Reservation” button is clicked.
I’m using Popup Maker for the modal. I’ve added the [booking-form] shortcode, but the window comes up empty. I found a similar problem in their forums and the developer wrote:
“What is likely happening is that the developer is using the wordpress function has_shortcode to detect if you used it in the post content, if not they dont load the neccessary css and JS files needed to make it work. There is usually a workaround that can be used, similar to gravity forms and contact form 7 to load them all the time basically. That should resolve the issue.”
Don’t know if this is what’s happening, so I thought I’d ask. Thanks so much for taking a look.
Michele
Hi Michele,
I think what you’re running into is that the booking form can only be printed once on a page. Since the form is being printed below the Make a Reservation button, it won’t be printed again later in the modal.
Try removing the booking form that appears on the page and then see if it appears in the modal.
Yes! Thank you, I love this plugin even more now.
@fluxappeal, @naewr – Did you get it working properly in the popup? PS I’m the developer of Popup Maker, just want to see if I can lend a hand if there are still issues.
Yes @danieliser, the form is working in the window. I’m having some trouble with the z-index, so I’ll probably stop by your support forum pretty soon 😉 Thanks for checking up, really appreciate it.
@fluxappeal – There are z-index override options in the display settings for each popup if you need to override the defaults.
Hi Daniel, thanks for stopping by!
Michele, it looks like things are working on our end but feel free to come back if you have any more problems. I noticed you’re on an older version of the plugin. Be sure to update when you get a chance, version 1.3 has some great new features.
@danieliser – figured out the z-index , thanks!
@natewr – didn’t know about the update, I’ll look into it. So far, the plugin is not playing nicely with my theme. Hopefully I’ll find a workaround, this plugin has a lot of potential.
Lots of great service here, thanks so much to you both!
@fluxappeal – Thanks. Be sure to take a moment to rate and review the plugins and or support.
