Hi,
could you please advise on how I can recreate the appointment block and pop up form in your demo, here > https://photographer.wpamelia.com/services/
Could I also ask why I have to enter my purchase code every time I open a ticket? Quite frustrating having to go look for it each time.
thanks,
Paul
Hello Paul,
Thank you for reaching out to us.
Popup button like this you can create using elementor
When you have created Employees, services and/or events in Amelia, you can add them on front-end using our shortcodes, which are explained in detail in the article "Amelia Shortcodes and Front-end implementation".
In Elementor widgets, simply search for “Amelia” in Elementor’s side bar, and drag the widget onto a page:
When it’s dragged into the page, the same parameter options seen in the Gutenberg block are shown in Elementor’s side panel:
So, to cover all options in here real quick:
First, you need to actually create a Popup in Elementor, following Elementor's tutorial here.
We added a shortcode for the popup - it needs to have the ID of the button that is calling the popup, so this is how one of the shortcodes should look like in the Elementor pop-up:
[ameliabooking trigger=amelia-button-id]
So, if the button ID is "my-popup-button" it will be:
[ameliabooking trigger=my-popup-button]
So, you create a Popup and add this shortcode in the popup.
Please note: At the moment, you cannot use Elementor's Amelia widgets in the popup, so when configuring the popup, make sure to add the "Shortcode" widget, and manually type the shortcode you need:
On the bottom-left part of the screen, click on the gear symbol to access Popup Settings:
In there, go to "Advanced", and enable "Prevent Closing on Overlay":
Then, on the page - add a button, on which the popup will be called, next to the "Link" field click on "Dynamic Tags" and select "Popup" from the drop-down:
Then, click on "Popup" in the link field, and you'll see the settings for the popup. Click on the "All" drop-down, and type the name of the popup you previously created. Select it, and click away to close the settings:
In the same form, below, you will see the "Button ID" field, where you need to add the ID for the trigger (from Amelia's shortcode):
That is it - once you publish this page, when you click on the button, it will open a popup which will manually trigger the "my-popup-button" and open Amelia's booking form.
As for purchase code this how this platform works. And you need to enter you purchase code so that we can know that your license is valid and that you still have access to our support. There was a lot of abuse earlier so opening a ticket in Amelia category with a purchase code is necessary for that reason. We do hope that you understand.
Should you have any further inquiries, we kindly request that you open separate tickets for each question and we will gladly help you there.
We wish you all the best.
Have a nice day.
Kind Regards,
Marko Davidovic [email protected]

Thanks Marko.
Unfortunately I don't use Elementor but I'll see if I can recreate it in the block editor.
Hello Paul,
We can not guarantee that this will work, we officially have pop-up for Elementor and we can confirm that they work there for anything else we can not guarantee since they are not designed to be created outside Elementor.
We wish you the best of luck.

You should probably make that clear in the demo, as Elementor really isn't as popular as it used to be.
Lots are moving away from it.
thanks anyway.
