Why are headers and footers showing up in my popups?

Post by sbangerter »

Hey everybody. Relatively new to Flare and loving it. Hoping you can help me out here...

On my main pages I have a header and a footer displaying, and it's working wonderfully. However, I've started creating links to popups, but the popups display the headers and footers like they do in my regular pages. I don't want them in my popups. How do I get rid of the headers and footers for the popups only? I'm pretty sure it has something to do with assigning a skin to the topics I'm using for the popups, but I go to the topic properties and there's no place to assign a skin for the topic alone.

What am I missing here?

You're using the same masterpage for them too.

You need to use a differnet masterpage without header and footer for the popups:
- You generate a class for the html tag (e.g.: html.popup)
- You assign a different masterpage to that class (can't remember how it's called - switch to alphabetical order of the styles an go look for sth like "masterpage")
- You assign that class too the html block in the topics that are going to be popups

For the future: Create a template for the popup topics with the correct class of the html tag already.

Actually, I just figured it out. Looks like trial and error is the best teacher, but thank you for your post. Couldn't have done it without your help. Much appreciated!
