Show Popup after page load

rloyola

Is there a way to automatically show the builtin Popup ( the one we used in a link <a href="URL" class="Popup"></a>) after page load

Gdn_Theme::link($this->data('Url'),'<a id="someid" href="%url" class="Popup">%text</a>');

That's a purely JavaScript question if I am not mistaken.

ok, I assume there is no built-in in the framework similar to informMessage https://docs.vanillaforums.com/developer/framework/inform/

Thanks

Thanks for introducing me that bit of Vanilla, very nifty! informMessage

I would do it this way. Oh, watch out, if you are using defer on your site's js

$("document").ready({
    gdn.informMessage($('#someid').text());
});

The tutorial does suggest this, to put in your plugin or themehook. And it automatically pops up on page load.

To make it identical to an existing tag on your page, that's for another post.

public function base_render_before($sender) {
  $sender->informMessage('<span class="InformSprite Skull"></span> This is a test!', 'Dismissable HasSprite');
}
