To create a custom modal pop up in Webflow that allows you to click out of it and only show the relevant teammate's bio, you can follow these steps:
- Create a Modal Element:
- Open your Webflow project and navigate to the page where you want to add the modal pop up.
- Drag and drop a
Modal
element from the Add Panel onto your page. - Customize the design and layout of the modal pop up according to your preferences using the Style Panel.
- Design the Teammate Bio Content:
- Inside the Modal, design the bio content for each teammate using the desired elements like text, images, etc.
- You can create a separate section or div for each teammate's bio.
- Add Trigger Buttons:
- Create a trigger button that will open the modal pop up when clicked.
- Place this button wherever you want on your page, such as a thumbnail or a bio summary section.
- Give the trigger button a unique class name for targeting purposes.
- Add Interactions:
- Select the trigger button and navigate to the Interactions Panel.
- Click on the "+" icon to create a new interaction.
- Choose the trigger type as click and add an action to show the modal element you created earlier.
- You can adjust the animation and timing options as per your preference.
- Link Trigger Buttons to Relevant Teammate Content:
- For each trigger button, you'll need to set up a conditional visibility rule for the bio content section inside the modal.
- Select the bio content section inside the modal and navigate to the Style Panel.
- Scroll down to the Visibility settings and choose "Hidden" as the initial visibility.
- Click on the "+" icon to add a new conditional visibility rule.
- Set the condition to match the class or ID of the trigger button associated with the teammate whose bio you want to display.
- Choose "Show" as the visibility setting for this condition.
- Close Modal on Click Outside:
- By default, Webflow's Modal will automatically close when you click outside of it, so you don't need to set up an additional action for that.
- Publish and Test:
- Once you have set up the modal and linked the trigger buttons to the relevant teammate's bio content, publish your site.
- Test the functionality by clicking on the trigger buttons and verifying that the correct teammate's bio is displayed in the modal pop up.
- Make any necessary adjustments to the design or behavior as needed.
Now you have successfully created a custom modal pop up in Webflow that allows you to click out of it and only shows the relevant teammate's bio. Enjoy showcasing your team with style and interactivity!
