Open the single post in a modal

Open listing details in Ultimate’s modal / popup instead of navigating away. You can enable this for infobox links, carousel links, default single-post maps, and/or marker “format” behaviour.

1. Default infobox settings (single-post maps)

Use this if single-post maps should open the post URL in a modal.

  1. Go to Progress Map (plugin settings).
  2. Open Default infobox settings.
  3. Find Post URL (or equivalent link behaviour).
  4. Choose Open inside a modal/popup.
  5. Save.

2. Per-map infoboxes

  1. Edit your map.
  2. Open Infobox settings.
  3. Set Post URL to Open inside a modal/popup.
  4. Update the map.

3. Carousel items

  1. Edit your map.
  2. Open Carousel items settings.
  3. Set Post URL to Open inside a modal/popup.
  4. Update the map.

If you use List & Filter, check the list item link settings for the same modal option.

4. Marker format on a location

  1. Edit the location post.
  2. Open Progress Map: Add Locations → Format & Media.
  3. Set Format to Link (Single post page) when you want marker interaction to open the post (modal behaviour then follows your link/modal settings).

Modal size

Under Customize, you can change modal size or force fullscreen — useful on mobile.

Tips

  • Test while logged out; some builders alter links in the editor preview.
  • If the modal is blank, the single template may rely on scripts that don’t run inside an iframe/modal — simplify the single template or link to a lighter “quick view” layout.
  • Combine with Customize infobox content when the modal should show a summary first.
