How can change the class of the Callout section image link?

[fintan+ 1]

Hi Does anyone know where I can change the class of the Callout section image link to change it from a destination url to a class that will call a modal window from the Easy Modal Lite plugin? Can I do it with code in the link text box or do I need to edit something at a deeper level? All help very much appreciated. Many thanks -- Fintan

Hi Fintan, Have you considered a jQuery solution? jQuery is already loaded in the theme, and it's very quick to add classes to elements.

I'm researching this unusual request. I see that you need to create a class="eModal" for the hypertext link, but I also note that it was intended to come from a source other than a traditional link. In other words.. http:// www. yoursite.com class="... won't work They're suggesting your link be # class="... However, they are doing it the traditional way within angle brackets < and >. That's not the way the callout option works. I did test to see if adding the class at the end of a link URL would work but alas, no. I'm not sure if you can do this without editing some particular file, so I'll try and find it and follow up.

Thanks Kate I'm afraid I'm not up to speed on jQuery, is there a reference source for its implementation in PlatformPro I could use to bone up on the ins and outs of it? Thanks again, apologies for the late reply, really appreciate your advice. -- Fintan

Thanks rangelone Really appreciate your help, apologies for the late reply. I see you've been through the same steps as myself in trying to get it to play ball. Did you get any further with it? I'm thinking I might have to abandon the callout image and just pop a button in the callout text instead. Will investigate jQuery as Kate suggests first though. Many thanks again -- Fintan

Whilst you investigate jQuery, I will change your post above to "Accept", if you require any assistance in the future, simply reply to this post, hope jQuery is the answer for you!

@fintan, No luck on my part. As far as I can tell, this is just not an applicable use of the callout function. However, I don't see any reason we couldn't apply a universal or full width sidebar with a text widget containing a table in which you can easily apply that code in a right table cell with the left formatted for the call out portion. It may be an old-fashioned solution but heck, they work or they wouldn't be old-fashioned.

Thanks rangelone. Good call, ye olde table in a sidebar might just be it. -- Fintan
