How can I display the collection detail template page in a popup modal in Webflow, using custom code?
To display a collection detail template page in a popup modal in Webflow, you can utilize custom code. Follow these steps to achieve this functionality:
Create the modal element: Start by adding a modal element to your Webflow project. You can do this by dragging and dropping a 'modal' component from the Webflow Add Panel onto your desired page. Customize the modal's style according to your design preferences.
Create a button or link: Next, place a button or link on your webpage that will trigger the modal to open. You can use a collection list or any other element of your choice.
Add custom code: Open the Page Settings for the collection detail template page where you want the modal to appear. Go to the Custom Code tab and input the following code:
<script>//Function to open the modalfunction openModal() { //Get the modal element by its unique ID const modal = document.getElementById("your-modal-id"); //Add the class 'is-open' to display the modal modal.classList.add("is-open");}//Function to close the modalfunction closeModal() { //Get the modal element by its unique ID const modal = document.getElementById("your-modal-id"); //Remove the class 'is-open' to hide the modal modal.classList.remove("is-open");}</script>Connect the button or link to the custom code: Select the button or link element you created in step 2. Open the Element Settings panel, go to the 'Click' tab, and choose 'Run JavaScript' as the action. In the Function Name field, enter
openModal().Style and position the modal: Use Webflow's Designer to style and position the modal according to your design. You can add content, images, and other elements to the modal.
Close the modal on overlay click: Add an interaction to the modal's overlay element. Set it to close the modal by running the
closeModal()function when clicked.
With these steps, you can successfully display a collection detail template page in a popup modal on your Webflow website. Remember that this solution requires some custom code implementation, so make sure to test it thoroughly on different devices and browsers to ensure a smooth user experience.
