Custom HTML Popups
Any HTML Inside a Popup
Wrap custom content with {popup}…{/popup} shortcodes — text, images, forms, tables, or embeds. Easy Popup stores content in a hidden #popinline div and opens it in a lightbox when the trigger is clicked.
Flexible Triggers
Use plain text links, Font Awesome icons, coloured pill buttons (ibtn), or image thumbnails to open the same rich HTML panel.
Image Triggers & Overlays
Image-Based Triggers
Set image, imgwidth, and imgheight to use a photo as the popup trigger instead of a text link.
Hover & Always-Visible Overlays
Add overlaytext and icons with full control over colours, opacity, font size, and borders. Use overlay="true" for badges that stay visible without hover.
Modern & Classic Themes
Modern (2026) Theme
Blur overlay, rounded panel, accent colour, configurable close button, coordinated zoom/slide animations, and 2026 gradient ibtn styling — recommended for new sites.
Classic (Legacy) Theme
Retain the original Fancybox look with 10 background patterns and 10 close button styles.
Full Colour Control
Control overlay tint, popup background, text colours, and add custom CSS for perfect brand integration.
YouTube, Vimeo & Maps
External URL Popups
Open YouTube, Vimeo, Google Maps, and other iframe content using the url attribute on a shortcode.
Autoplay Control
Set autoplay="1" or autoplay="0" on video triggers. Control popup width and height per embed with popwidth and popheight.
Animation & Dimensions
Modern Animation Effects
Choose from fade, zoom, slide-up, slide-down, elastic, or none — with coordinated panel and overlay transitions in the Modern theme.
Smart Dimensions
Set popup width and height per shortcode or use plugin defaults with Modern width/height modes.
Image Sizing
Control image trigger width, height, and corner radius from shortcode attributes or plugin settings.
Pill Buttons & Icons
Predefined Button Classes
Use class="ibtn ibtn-blue" (and red, green, yellow, grey, orange, violet, dark-blue) for coloured pill trigger buttons.
Font Awesome Icons
Add icon="fa-plus" to text links and buttons, or combine icon-only triggers for toolbar-style rows.
Modern ibtn Styling
When Modern theme is active, optional gradient pill styling is applied automatically to ibtn triggers on the page.
Responsive & Lightweight
Conditional Asset Loading
CSS and JavaScript load only on pages that contain {popup} shortcodes — keeping other pages fast.
Fit to View
Automatic viewport fitting ensures popups display correctly on mobile, tablet, and desktop.
Clearfix Helper
Built-in shortcode to properly clear floats after image triggers and floated popup content.
Joomla 4/5/6 Compatible
Latest Joomla Support
Fully compatible with Joomla 4.x, 5.x, and 6.x using modern APIs and best practices.
WebAssetManager
Uses Joomla's native WebAssetManager for optimal asset loading, with a fallback injector when shortcodes are detected only at render time.
Single Plugin Install
One ZIP (plg_popup_vX.x.zip) installs the complete Easy Popup system plugin.
