I have an aweber lightbox sign up form that I want to trigger when someone clicks on the call to action button in salient. Is there a way to trigger an onclick lightbox web form?
How are you triggering your form normally? Currently you can call a lightbox on any button or link by adding the class "pp" to it. For example:
<a href="" class="pp"> My lightbox </a>
Or
<a href="" class="pp nectar-button accent-color"> My lightbox </a>
for a nectar button.
Are you already using your own lightbox and are just wondering how to hook it up to a nectar button or do you only have the form and no lightbox and were wondering how to add it into a lightbox and then trigger that from the nectar button?
Yes. I have created a lightbox sign up form in Aweber (URL is http://forms.aweber.com/form/47/496969847.htm) and would like to know how to hook it up to a nectar "call to action" button.
If I go to "Salient" Tab in The Wordpress Dashboard
Then go to "Call To Action Options" there is a section where you can add your call to action button link URL so that call to action shows up on every page. I was wondering if I could add a URL/link there that will trigger my aweber sign up form in a lightbox rather than having the sign up form open up in a new window.
ok. we seem to be getting closer but the optin opens up in a scroll box and when I adjust the width adn height to make iframe larger it still does not fit.
Plus I am not able to close the frame without refreshing the page so that is not going to work....
testing that same line in my setup I have different results. The width/height are fine for the lighbox and there's the standard close "x" on the top right to close it. Can you let me login to your setup so I can test everything for you?

Hope that makes sense =)

Hey again! Sorry for the delay - Wrapping up V3.0 caused a larger than normal queue to build - thanks for your patience! :)
You would need to open up the footer.php file and change this line:
into this:

Try changing it to this instead:

Any other suggestions/options??

Hey again Andrea,
the main conflict was coming from your video lightbox plugin - upon deactivation the behavior was restored to its normal state :)
