Adding simple popup to Plone frontpage
Here is a little guide for those who want to add a simple popup to the Plone frontpage for some purpose (eg: announcements, advertisements, etc).
Create a basic html file containing the content you want to appear in the popup. Upload it into $PLONE_SITE/portal_skins/custom (as Page Template) and for the sake of this example, name it popup.html
Afterward, create a Javascript file with your Pop-Up loader script. For example , this script:
function popup(mylink, windowname)
{
if (! window.focus)return true;
var href;
if (typeof(mylink) == 'string')
href=mylink;
else
href=mylink.href;
window.open(href, windowname, 'width=220,height=400,scrollbars=no');
return false;
};
popup('popup.html', 'My Popup');
Also upload this file into $PLONE_SITE/portal_skins/custom (as Page Template too). For this example, name it as popup.js
Afterward, in $PLONE_SITE/portal_javascripts , add popup.js as a new script into portal_javascripts…
