[Pro] Pulse CMS and Spawn new window

Freeway
1

I hope someone can help me with this. I don’t see it, ( perhaps there is nothing to be seen?)

I want to use Pulse ( basic version) and the action Spawn new window together.
Is it possible and if so how??

it would be used like this:
a block with text, where some links could go to a url that are a SNW (pop up )…
Now both the block with text as well as the pop up, should be able to be into the Pulse blocks, but i do not get it.

I would really appreciate the insight from somebody else
:smiley:

So do you want some editable text that has the SNW action applied that will open a new window which contains editable text?

I dont think it can be done.

You could have editable content in the new window but which window to open would be hard wired and could not be changed outwith the action.

I think it would be easier to use target show/hide using an image trigger next to editable text with other editable content in the show/hide layer.

ehm… that is almost like spanish to me… and i don’t speak spanish… how do you mean for me to do that?
How should i do that?

the reason i want to make it is: a list, that should be managed with pulse, i don’t even know what goes into it. And the links that should direct to a new window… ? sounds so straighforward, but i don’t know how to let the links in the list, if a new link should be added, should come to the list…

So you want a list of links that open a new window with content defined via Pulse

You can set any link to open in a new window using target: _blank but Pulse does not create whole HTML pages so you would have to create generic pages in FW first.

i know. the pages are there. it is just that the container for the text is there, the pages are there, i have only no idea what to put where, so pulse know’s that it has to expect an url, to a new page, ( serveral) and not just that, but they are spawn new window to…

( springcleaning i think, cleared half my brain)

Forget the Spawn New Window action - it cant work because the text to link from does not exist in the FW page.

You will need to add this as HTML within Pulse

<a href="http://www.yourwebsite.com" target="_blank">Your website</a>

But it will need to be a transitional NOT strict page

Just realised that this ability is built into the Pulse editor - but I may be using the expanded version.

Click on the Link icon to create the link and there is a Target selector at the top where you can choose New Window (_blank) from the options.
